Newbie here - need all the advice I can get!

Hi all

I am Mum to two beautiful boys aged 4 and 6.  My 4 year old Joshua was only diagnosed as having ASD yesterday so still a bit shell-shocked.  Even though I was convinced he had ASD all along, having it confirmed still shook me a bit.

However - we're taking it as a positive and can't wait to get hold of some the help that's out there - particularly with his challenging behaviour.

Would welcome any help and advice anyone can give me!!!

  • Thanks for your message. That's one of the things that I'm most looking forward to - being able to take him places where neither he or we are judged and making friends who have children that we can invite round.  We try to avoid inviting children round to our house as it's just heartbreaking and frustrating for all when other children keep getting hit and kicked and we daren't go round to other people's houses as it's just too stressful!
