  1. You should e-mail them you never know. I was really dissapointed when we found out it wasnt tanya biron doing our programme on little angels... i think she is fantastic.. Debs..x
  2. Thats really good news.Lets hope you get that call what made you decide to go ahead and do it? People said i was mad to go on the little angels programme. But i did it because i was at the end of my teather and knew that these people have fantastic knowledge of asd. Anyway keep us posted..fingers crossed for you..
  3. hi...someone else also told me that you have to do a lot of personal speaches which im not very good at it. But still i am looking forward to it. my course starts this week also so it will be good to meet other parents in the same situation. Hope your course all goes well. let me know how you get on with it. Debs.x
  4. I to did apply for the house of tiny tearaways but never got a reply, I then applied for the little angels programme and the bbc were brilliant in getting back to me. Just goes to show you how diffrent they are. My daughter was also described as having mild aspergers to start with. But this was then changed to a more challenging form, i dont understand what that means, as far as im concerned if a child has asd then they have it..there shouldnt be any of this... mild....severe...catageries.. just my opinion anyway.. Debs..x
  5. hi i was just wondering if anyone else has been on the Autism Outreach programme...i am starting the programme on thursday i know this will be really helpfull as there is still so much i dont know about aspergers...but was just wondering what to expect...
  6. My daughter came home from school today really upset she said her teacher had shouted at her and told her...she was very dissapointed in her and her work...that she must try harder....that her work was not good enough... Im really fuming about this, How dare she im after some advice on what would be the best way of dealing with this. I have now got the problem of getting her to go back in school again. When i asked her about her schoolwork she said to me....Its to hard for me..I told my teacher i couldnt do it and she said....Well try harder, Honestly do these teachers really have experience in kids with aspergers and a.d.h.d? It makes me wonder, Anyway could do with any advice on how i should approach the school...
  7. I watched it aswell i think its disgusting what he said, My daughter has a.d.h.d aswell as aspergers and i would never put her on meds just to shut her up.. as he put it. But you are right in what you say. I allways thought my doctor thought the same about me... and it made me feel really paronoid as a parent,Why would any parent want to give their kids meds without a good reason behind it?..they make me so angry with there iggnorant views, Hope they get a good telling off for doing it...
  8. Hi ...yes i will be doing that next year for sure...its kind of strange as it was my sister who sent the smarties egg down from lincoln i think she must of forgot the effect it has on her...anyway i told sophie that because she couldnt have the egg that she could come in to town with me and buy herself a little toy to replace it...but next year i will be telling everyone no SMARTIE easter eggs please...its weird how some foods affect kids and others it dont...sophie cant have fish fingers or beans or any other coloured food so it makes it quiet boring for her. but im glad that health officials are now seeing this and are providing alternatives for these children to eat...theres hope yet...ha ha..
  9. Hi sorry your feeling down today i too have days like this and nothing anyone says or tries to do can change me..i dont even know what triggers it off..maybe just life in generall.. but you are not allone on this as im sure most of you would agree..have you talked to your docter at all about this?. Maybe he could help..i had a big blow up with my daughter who has aspergers,all over some smarties which to most kids is nothing but of course sophie is diffrent...so this has made me feel even worse today...still they go back to school next week which will help in getting back to normall..hope ypur feeling better soon...xx
  10. HI...I DID THINK PERHAPS IT WAS A BIT HARSH SAYING NO SO I DECIDED TO LET HER HAVE THEM BUT I TOOK ALL THE BLUE AND ORANGE ONES OUT...WHICH I THOUGHT WAS FAIR..ONLY SOPHIE THOUGHT OTHERWISE AND TOLD ME I DONT LOVE HER LIKE I DO MY OTHER KIDS OR I WOULDNT HAVE TAKEN HER SWEETS FROM HER...YOU JUST CANT WIN...I HAVE KIND OF PREPARED FOR THE BIG HYPE THAT IS SURE TO COME SOON...IT JUST SEEMS SO UNFAIR ON THEM DOESNT IT..
  11. Hi all just wondered if anyone else has had any problems today my daughter sophie is 8 she has aspergers and a.d.h.d. unfortunatley she was given a smarties easter egg and when i explained she wasnt allowed the smarties she flipped big time.they send her completley of the rails and she gets herself in a right mess..she now thinks im unfair and that i shouldnt take her things of her its not the case at all but as you may all well know smarties and a.d.h.d dont mix well at all...she now hates me and wont talk to me..and i feel so cr*p its allways speacial events that bring these problems out with her as she is so restricted to what she can and cant have..anyway if anyone has any suggestions on this one i would be most greatfull... HAPPY EASTER TO YOU ALL..
  12. hello and merry xmas to you all...well today has been a very long day so far sophie woke up at 3.30am this morning and kindly woke my other two children up bless she is so excited but has been quiet emotional its hard sharing yourself around 3 kids all at once and we have had a few tears from her as she felt she was being left out when i was putting my sons toys together god its so hard isnt it...hoping she may simmer down soon as shes now been awake for 12.00 hrs....anyway hope you are all enjoying your day..x Debbie..x
  13. hi im glad that you gained something from the programme i sometimes watch it again myself to pick up on the important issues that were raised lets hope they continue making programmes on asd in the futue.. Debbie
  14. hi skywalker..thankyou very much everyone is so welcoming on here its lovley...
  15. hi brook yes i finally worked out how to use the site...thankyou everyone for the wellcome i read all of your thoughts on the little angels programe its just so nice to see that there are so many people out there who understand asd. i have been told by the bbc that LITTE ANGELS will be shown early next year on bbc1 i will let you all know the exact date when they tell me.
  16. hi my name is debbie, i have a daughter called sophie who has aspergers syndrome and a.d.h.d she is 7yrs old.someone recommended i look at this site as it has lots of usefull information after looking through it im really pleased to see im not the only one out there struggling to make sure our children have a normall life etc.i wasnt very clued up on asd and found it quiet difficult to understand we have been very lucky as we were accepted on a t.v programme called LITTLE ANGELS and had the expert help from a lady called lavene antrobus who works at the tavistock centre in london with children who have asd.she has given us a lot of help and support in understanding aspergers syndrome and im pleased to say that sophie responds a lot better to me now..anyway its been good reading all of your advice and tips etc hope to pick up on some more as time goes on.. Debbie
