Have just had a phone call from my sons school from the senco teacher there after we had gone into to speak about r son, ( Son is 10 and we off to a consultants app this week for a review, he was diagnosed as developmental delay, hypermobility and delayed speech at 4yrs old, my little man shows typical syptoms of autism, hand flapping, finger biting, frightend to death of google earth, unsociable at school, etc) The so called expert teacher who has on several occasions imformed me she has been dealing with special needs children for over 20yrs and spot autism a mile away, told me after careful consideration and dealing with my son at school she believes theres is nothing wrong with him and he just hand flapping, feet stamping etc to get attention, he knows exactly what he is doing and if he carries on this behavior in upper school he gonna stick out like a sore thumb and be bullied, she then went on to ask if she could film him in whilst in school while he is exhibiting these behviors and then show him how stupid he looks!!!! words cannot describe how annoyed i am!!! how dare she!!! i am just glad she down the other end of the phone because i woudnt have trust myself not to smack her one right in the chops!!! sorry to rant on here guys but really needed somewhere to vent and know people on here are understanding as many of us r going through the same experiances, i feel like my head might actually explode with anger!!
