  • We get DLA for both our boys (7 and 9 years old).  The elder gets middle level care and low band mobility, he has ASD and a host of associated other conditions (dyspraxia, ADHD, episodic dyscontrol syndrome, memory problems).  The younger gets middle level care, he has AS, pathological demand avoidance and sensory integration problems.

    We also get Carer's allowance for one of them (you can only claim one).  You need to have middle level care to be eligable.

    Hope that helps.
