What is it with the forum and the NAS bashing ~ URSPECIAL

Of course the logical situation is removing the pathetic waste of time fob off advice line you can never get through to and having a citizens advice for autistic people and carers to access.

Removing the tame sock puppets and NT  self proclaimed experts and actually employing people able on the spectrum to assist others.

I used to be crippled with uncertainty and self doubt- it is possible to overcome both.

The problem is we don't want to sit on our backsides and rot- there are more than a few ways we can be successful in our own way.

Frankly expecting a job centre person or similar to have the IQ and understanding to cater for us is a waste of time.

I have discussions with professors, but have learnt to dumb it down in general conversations as the average member of the public isn't capable of highly intellectual conversations- getting drunk,facebook are the popular things and trashy soap operas they can relate their crumby little lives to.

But where is the profit in actually running an advice line that encompasses all when currently NAS can fast track fob us off to Citizens Advice with no follow up or aftercare to see help was recieved.

Until a major short coming happens where someone commits suicide or similar-nothing will change and even then the best will be "lessons have been learnt".

I have complained to charities commission and they are toothless- but people are being tricked as

• £5 a month helps pay for a befriender to meet regularly with someone with autism.
• £10 a month helps another family get help and advice from our Education Rights Service.
• £20 a month helps us to give practical support to someone with autism who is looking for work.
