My son who is 13 and has been diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome currently only recieves 2 hours of schooling a day..when I asked the education authority about this they said..."because your son has a diagnoses the local education autority only has to offer him one hour a day at school so be gratefull you got 2 hours" Is this correct?
Also they were suppose to start a statement process about 5 months ago but they havent, so when I asked them about it they said (teachers) that they have been busy and my son is not the only child they have to look after....i appreciate they are busy but if the doctors have told them to start the processs dont they have a duty of care to my son and do it?
I live with my husband who is great with my son but during the day I feel so alone and isolated...even family members try to avoid coming to see us because of my sons bizzare (they think its bizzare, to me its normal Michael) behaviours...I live in Blackpool and there is nothing for parents with Aspergers children, theres not a great deal for the kids either mind...
I just want to pick him up and shake the Aspergers out of him some days...what I want to ask is..(after being blamed by people for his condition)...could I have done something to prevent it?
