    Excluded Again!!!

    Hi and thanks for the kind words. We have had a trial and error regards medication, He started on Straterra, but as he had to swallow a capsule, and couldnt we asked if there was another way to take it. Doc said open capsule and put it in a drink. He could taste it and so wouldnt drink for three days! Then we tried Equasym, (Methephenadate) not sure if spelt right, this was in a capsule, but could be opened up and contents sprinkled into food, most days he didnt see it, but some he did. However this seemed to make him 10 times worse, with behaviour, and lack of inibitions, (think that is the right word). We have today started him on Risperdal, liquid form and he has to take 2 1/4 of an oucne a day. He sayd it tastes awful, but as he has Atypical autism too, his senses are very hightened. Not sure if this will help, but i hope so. He is also on a 20 Hour statment at school, but what good that is, when they keep excluding him I dont know. He swears alot at home, and this is partly why he has been excluded, not sure if the bad language is part of his condition, but he has so much going on, there may be many things there. Thanks for your time, and sorry to go on Hugs Elain

    Excluded Again!!!

    Hi all, life seems to have really had me running round in circles quite a lot recently. Not sure if you will remember but I have 2 sons, and 1 has recently been finally! diagnosed DAMP and Atypical autism. Which includes ADHD & Dysprxia. My son has been excluded again!, He was exluded last week, at the beginning for two days, and went back on Wednesday. Today he went back, and has been exluded til next tuesday! (5 days). Apparently he kicked off at lunchtime, shouting abuse to passers by, who cmoplained to the headteacher. Now I know he swears, but I dont know how much of this is down to his condition, or just him being naughty. As you know it has took us a while to get a definate diagnosis, I dont know too much about what is involved with his condition, but I can tell you I am at the end of my tether. Hugs illy
  3. I have just looked at this with the timetable, My son had his Parents evening a couple of weeks ago now, and although they did show me his IEP (well notes lol) i have never been shown a timetable, and am yet to receive a copy of his IEP. As a parent with many concerns about my child, what rights do I have? Can I go to school at the beginning of the school day, and after, to see how things have been with my son at school? Thanks for any info Hugs Illy
  4. Hi I am looking at writing a letter of complaint to my sons teacher, due to how I was treated on Firday. I know what I need to say, but cant think how to start etc. I know it sounds stoopid! but with so many other things I have to do at the moment regarding my sons school etc, I just cant get my head round it all. So how do I start the letter, How do I end it Thanks for taking the time to read this Hugs Illy
  5. Thank you for your valued help. I have bookmarked it and am getting together information that I need from it, Hugs illy

  9. Hi, i havnt posted in quite a while, Can a child with such a diagnosis and of this age, would they understand what Racism is? We have spoken to our child, Thank you for reading this
  10. He used to say the words backward eg - Rob - Bob, so a bit different - Dog - god, counted his numbers backwards, but couldnt d them forward, He used to say he wanted to go upstairs, when he was there already, Inside for ouside. Hugs illy
  11. He was slow to speak, and when he did start talking ti was very hard to understand, He also siad alot of words backwards, he has had a stutter for quite some time and still does. His vocabulary is overall good, but quite often says alot by just repeating what he hears on tv etc Hugs illy
  12. Hi everyone, sorry it has been a while, family troubles, etc Anyway i am probably being cheeky with asking a question, and i hope you dont mind I saw a doctor yesterday about Anthony,(6 years old) He said that Anthony cant have Asperger because he had (Still has) speach problems! Why cant he? couldnt he have asperger but have a speech problem on top as well. He said he may have High Functioning Autism, because of the speech problems! totally confused, i know i am lol. He wants to do an IQ test on him, to see whethter he is high functioning. He also said it could be PDD NOS as it may be a combination?! is this right. Also that he may have ODD so what do you think Thanks in advance If you have ay ideas please let me know Hugs illy --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
