Do you ever feel like your parenting is being questioned?

So today we saw a private occupational therapist that school have bought in, i have a chat with her and she says my son will need a sensory diet ect ect, i also said to her i did not understand why there was a huge difference in behaviour rom home to school.

Anyway went in and spoke to teacher this afternoon and asked how it went, she said that shes said to the ot perhaps its home because they have no problems in school, which now makes me think that they think its my parenting and by goslly olly do i feel bad now.

  • I think this is a really important topic in my personal experience it is while a child with ASD is at school and I only have Mainstream school experience with my own child that the behaviour problems occur.  I have never met any parent yet with an ASD child that doesn't have problems at home whilst school age.  Especially the early years.  Schools in my opinion always say its not them its always the mothers.  I've seen it all before keep copies of all correspondence between school and home and any appointments with Health professionals.  Get your concerns documented and keep copies.

    Good Luck
