I am getting so blooming frustrated!

mumof4boys772

So we have been to the audiologist he has confirmed my son has hypercussis and will be recieing specail hearing aids to help.

We are going on a socail communication course next week and the week after, my son cannot infer meaning from pictures,people or feeling as well as the rest of the blurb that fits the spectrum!

I have not posted everything as you will all have probably read my countless threads before,however i am getting so dammed frustrated that this can all bbe put down toautistic traits and sensory issues,how can it be possible when we have been living a life of hell for years?

So when they say autistic traits they could possibley be saying theres nothing wrong with him,wheres the help for the sensory issues?

I am getting so peeved,its been a long hard battle and i feel like i need to give up and not pursue what help he will need in the future.

    MO4B,

    It sounds as though they are taking his autism quite seriously if you are going on a social communication course for two weeks with him. It sounds as though he is well and truly "in the system" if he is getting the audiology and everything else.

    When they say that he has "autistic traits" they are, perhaps, saying that is showing classic signs of autistic spectrum problems. It may be you are thinking of this as that he only has traces or slight issues when they have understood that he has problems that need to be given special assistance. I had to look up the definition of trait, as I wasn't clear on what it means exactly, and google came up with "a distinguishing quality or characteristic" whereas in everyday usage we might think of a trait as a small part of someones character.
