can i just say that i ment government funding in schools.and we have had counciling and support.and my child has special teachers.and a classroom assistant.we have a psychologist.and ed phychologist.all the teachers time who have taken time and effort to try to teach louis.we have had nothing but kindness.im not having a dig at DLA .nor would i ever take a swipe at KIDS who get dla. i try always to think of dla for our children not for overspending greedy parents. you know the parents i mean who drink buckfast,smoke dope,sell heroin all obviously get dla cos they are unfit parents whos kids have behavioural problems and are walking the streets after dark. ...most parents who get dla are honourable or carerers allowance because they cant work and have to look after kids who are difficult.my wee boy doesnt sleep he wrecks the house at night time,i am constantly tidying and trying to make sense of mayhem.we have not had a nights sleep in 9 years so i personally am not going to have someone suggest we do everything for dla.its offensive and insulting and unjust.grrrrrr.to see this on a support site for parents like us is like reading the daily mail....this site is to support people not have a dig at parents already at the end of there teather. noogsy...........

louis doesnt actually do calculus.(you are being literal...lol...)louis likes number to have a order.as long as he cans see a pattern he is happy,as soon as there are odd numbers or there is no pattern he is stumped because he cant see a reason for there to be a answer.....he learns things in blocks...calculus is a term used for high mathematics but it can also cover basic operations for maths but somtimes in a diffrent format....im copying from a letter just in case everyone thinks im all clever....im not...but my child is... love noogsy

oh and someone said to jme today they thought that autism was now being taken more seriously by the government because of the MMR link.and the government is appeasing parents because autism is now more in the public eye..........so more money has become available...........noogsy

hi i dont know about trendy but i would say that if a child has adhd and asd then they have more chance of getting funding,than if it was adhd on its own.the autism thing definatly seems to get more funding in scotland..we have managed to get a aspergers teacher for louis for 2 1/2 hours a week.which is a lot out of louis time table.he also has a classroom assistant in the morning but not afternoons he has all the things he is good at in the afternoons.it does i think get attention from the head ones above.we didnt have to insist our head teacher did put everything in place quickly.no complaints from us....love noogsy

we are stuggling with the whole table thing,if we want to eat our diner without getting indigestion louis has to be watching simpsons,futurama,or malcom in the middle.now the odd thing is he sits down for christmas diner and birthdays cos they are very special days.but dont ask him to sit on a plain day...lol...luckly louis has very laidback,old parents.who love him to bits.....love noogsy

10 months of breast feeding was quite enough for me....lol...noogsy

my little boy used to be terrible in the super market but i have found that if i give him tasks hes not so bad.i think he was bored sensless in tescos and asda,so now i have a list and i ask him to go find things and bring them straight back and put them in the trolly.he has a fear of store detectives and the loud speaker things so he flies of to do his jobs and brings everything back.he used to be afraid of shop lifting.if i got to the till and he thought i wasnt going to pay for my shopping.NOW I HAVE NEVER EVER DONE THIS.but he had got it into his head that we were going to run out of the shop not having paid.he likes to keep an eye on me in the supermarket...lol..just incase i make a run for it...very odd.love noogsy

i will probably have a look at this film.i think it will be good.noogsy

aw sweetie pie im sending you a hug my mum has been in hospital to. <'> <'> <'> love noogsy

hi all.louis is having problems visualising maths.he is totally at a loss with long division.a specialist who has spent time with louis told his teacher he learns maths though calculus?....the teachers have no idea how to teach him?...the teachers have tried all the normal ways of explaining...ie with bricks.and lou just doesnt get it.he is mad about science but if his maths doesnt improve he will not cope with doing science at high school.he is very articulate but is struggling with maths..does enyone know of a visual way ,website or anything that can help louis learn maths...any ideas would be appreciated...love noogsy..xxx...even if i have to pay for programes

hi my wee boy gets worse if he is stressed.when louis is blinking and twiching more and he is obviously upset i spend a huge amount of time reasuring him and trying to find out what is wrong with him..somtimes i never get to the bottom of what is wrong .but when i do find out what has upset him im thrilled cos it means i actually reached him and he managed to tell me.which is a big thing for us....i hope you find out what has stressed your babe...love noogsy

hi honey-pie my wee boy sqeeks,pops and bangs...grimaces twiches and generally is hard to watch and listen to.but i sooooo love him that erm im oblivious.....louis has always been loud...since he was a small thing....if i lived nearer you i would come and support you hun.up here where we live i and others try to go to meetings with patents just so they have another parent to hold hands with....im so sorry you are on your own...love and hugs noogsy...xxx

crikey.honey-pie what a nightmare.you know you are a good mother..i spose at the end of the day you have to stand your ground and hope that everyone realises you are trying to do your best...and that your child is better of with you...i dont know the full story....but im assuming that your child is not being looked after properly in mainstream and you have opted out.till they find him a place in special school.am i right.do you know where you want him to be school wise?.....anyway thinking of you...anyway why london?are you not in mancherster or somwhere?....sorry for the questions my head jumps from thing to thing...sorry...love and hugsXXXXnoogsy

hi TN.. good for you, well done and all that.now all you have to do is go on thursday and you will have the perfect place to go to when you are feeling down.a place where you can have short conversations with people.and it will hopefully lift the lonelyness.... love noogsy

i just asked louis (aged 9)about the elephant sitting on the fence ??he said obviously 3.00 o'clock a asked him why 3.00 o'clock??he said obviously(obviously???) thats what time the elephant came out of school...lol...i love my asd babe.....he understands.....lol....love noogsy

hi welcome to this forum ..i have found comfort in realizing i am not alone in my weirdness...and there are lots of people as odd as me.... <'> love noogsy

i have sent you a pm with the website....noogsy

hi ive been thinking about using a complimentary therapy i will have a look at the link...noogsy

hi well done good new hun noogsy

ok maybe you don't do groups.but you do have a talent.you can amuse in a whimsical way.and you can write things down.so what about a writing class?remember to go easy on yourself you are going to feel all over the place just now.if you think you really have the blues you might need to see your GP.sorry you feel horrid....love noogsy

hi this is quite a serious problem and i also think you should see your GP. just to give you a check up and make sure that you have nothing wrong.what about thinking about some sort of therapy?i had a look round the internet and it seems men have this problem more than women.or maybe woman dont talk about it.from what i can see it seems to be stress related.there is mention of hypnotherapy?worth a thought.i spose not all people feel sexy all the time and maybe this is just a dry spell in your life.i dont think you should just put up with it though.definately see the doc....love noogsy

hi what about starting your own support group.put a smalll add in your local news paper and go from there...what have you got to lose.... love noogsy

hi TN,i'm fine in the virtual world i can cope with people.but when in social situations i bomb big time.its hard to suggest things to you,cos unless a subject interests you then you will struggle. i'm inclined to think you should not encourage your ex wifey as when things go sour(and they defiantly will) with her new beau she may think it is ok to move back in with you possibly with a new infant ..or even worse about to sprog. ..can you even imagine having to massage her feet and rub her big huge tummy .. i do understand the loneliness thing and horrible boredom of being no longer a couple it is going to take you a while to find your feet.its not nice to wander the town and have no one to share a coffee with.or wander round to the music shop....you don't want to be one of these people who goes weird and starts talking to plants or trees... i think you should work on your fitness and try to get back to your running this is healthy and you enjoy it so it is a positive thing in your life...now don't shoot me but have you thought about joining the gym????lots of healthy girls.and you can go there and do your own thing..i'm a member of banatynes(and it is not to threatening)...i don't know if there is one near you.but i'm talking about a good health club not a boxing emporium....lol...not rocky.. i think you have to try to get yourself out there and try(i know its really hard)to meet people. have you thought about doing a twilight at college or uni...you know something just for pleasure???photography,art,car maintenance,lol,,i don't know there HAS to be something you are wanting to know more about...where you can meet new people...sorry you feel so miserable hun..hope i have made you smile a bit and erm one of my suggestions is a possible....love noogsy
