My son, 13, and diagnosed with Childhood Autism has always been homeschooled by myself and his dad.
I would be happy to be in contact with any other parents homeschooling.

Hi i am a mum to 4 boys one whom is on the asd spectrum..well actually i think 2 more are but for now they seem to be coping with life just fine...
Ok my son has been in mainstream for 3 years and he hates its he screams and cries not to go most days (they say he has good days and bad days). However he has got out of school on 3 occasions and i can see just how anxious he is when he is there it breaks my heart.
2 weeks ago i said enough is enough and removed him from school (recommeded by a specialist school because of his mental health being effected if left in the wrong enviroment)...they have since agreed that they can not meet his needs. I have been to 3 special need schools who say they aren't the right provision and the "units" i have seen i hate...
My problem is that my son is clever but hates to work and hates to learn and i do not know what is best for him.
The thought of homeschooling scares me because i worry that i won't be giving him enough and what about when he point blank refuses to do any work?? I have his twin brother to get to school every day and his younger brother and an older brother who is doing his 2nd year of A levels.
If anyone has any advice for me it truely would be greatly receieved.
Thanks for reading my rant!
