im at my whits end

can some one please point me in the right direction. my 9 yr old son is struggling with every day life i have been taking him to a child peaditrition since he was 2. they just keep saying he has language problems and has autistic tendancys but doesnt warrant eneough to have an ados assesment all because he doesnt have behavioral problems at school. although he is in a special group for reading and english has he is in yr 4 but only just finishing level 1. he suffers out bursts and struggles so much at home. can he have a form of autism even if he doesnt struggle in school with his behavior?

    I was told the same because my daughter was the model pupil in primary, highly accademic, well behaved. I started to believe it was bad parenting on my behalf!!

    She's now started comp and has fallen to pieces, her attendance is below 70% she's not coping at all, her meltdowns at home have become violent and her sensory issues have become much worse.

    My GP and her comprehensive school are being really supportive, I'm having real problems with child mental health services though who keep fobbing me off and giving me the run around. I'm going to see my MP this week as I'm seeing her deteriorate before my eyes!!

    Good luck with your assessments and if you still don't get anywhere keep pushing.
