Hi Im New here

My son who is 6 years old is currently having assessments for Aspergers Syndrome, So theres no diagnosis as of yet, but the teachers, child psychologist and myself think that he has these traits.

Its taking forever for the diagnosis, I just want to know so I can get help and some support cos it really is hard work!

I do have a little question that I would like to ask about my son, everytime I want to cut his hair or his nails he proper goes off on one and cant get nothing done, I need to cut his hair for school on Monday as a photographer is going to school.

Last time I cut his hair, it was very uneven and looked awful to be honest cos he never stayed still and I felt so bad cos he was heart broken :(

Is there any ideas that you could maybe share with me, as I dread cutting his hair and nails, and really dont fancy pinning him down cos I will feel awful!

Thank you

Jo

  • number one enemy, the haircut,, locked in a chair, glasses off can't see, the barber asking you what do you want,(eh,, a haircut please), the non-vanity and non-egotistic nature of me(anything will do as long as it does not cover my eyes), the touching of the hair and snipping sound, the psychological and physical near presence of a babbling stranger, the non-trust, the small talk ********, the bright lights and music, asking if the haircut is fine and that feeling of that your head is now cold and bare. I've been sheep sheared !

    Haircut a nightmare !

    So I just wait to the summer(warmer on the haircut head)and get one hair cut a year, done by my sister in law who is nice and patient and does it in 5 minutes.
