School not helping!

Hello everyone,

Just venting my frustrstions. My son age 10 years has after years been diognosed autisic spectrum disorder. School had labelled him as special needs and more or less ignored him for 5 years.Whilst this happened we had been to various appointments to try and prove that he had autisum. One such app was with a certain doctor who after we explained our sons symptoms said that he had a fetal impaction gave us lacatives to give him and ending the consultaion with the diognosis that he was Slow! 

We then find that our son has coliac desease and is autisic!

After all this when we finally get the correct assesment school is doing nothing to help.

excuse grammer typed on my phone and cant quite get the hang of it yet!

  • It took me 6 years to get a diagnosis of Aspergers. All the symptons fit my personality perfectly, but the doctors just said that I was a bit behind in the socializing area. It wasn't until we saw a psychologist who actually specialized in diagnosing Aspergers, till I got formally diagnosed. She said she knew I had it within 5 minutes!  Sometimes it's just about finding the right doctor.
