Hi everyone, I'm new to this group. My daughter is 17. She was diagnosed in April. She came out of school in yr 10. She started a 14-16 maths and English course at college. This had its ups and downs but she did go, when it came to the exams she couldn't manage them. This September she started a Career Skills course. She said she liked the teachers, had a couple of friends but has now come off the course she said she doesn't see the point in it.
I have suggested counselling. She did go on a 6 week one which seemed to help ( a while ago) Volunteer work. They wanted her to speak on the phone which she wouldn't do. She had met English and Maths tutors who shd doesn't feel comfortable with . Obviously getting a job..... not sure if she could manage an interview. The main issue is her talking. I have tried to be so positive. I'm even thinking of volunteering myself and then she could come with me. I'm running out of ideas!
