Hello, I’m new to the group as I thought I was handling my 11 year being Autism. But, looks like I’m not. Ellie has just started secondary school and things are not going well. She’s getting bullied as she’s clearly an easy target! She then retaliates and ends up in trouble. The school are not doing enough, TAMS aren’t doing enough and I’m lost. I have kept Ellie at home today as she was going to be spending another day in isolation! Although I work and my husband works she comes first. Are there any support groups we can do to?. Ellie may need to change schools. She knows she different and we have explained Aspergers to her and she understands how special she is. I’m struggling.she needs to be with kids who understand her........ help!. Xx
