Gardenia Report post Posted May 6, 2006 Hi, I live in the north east of England a place called Washington, with my husband and two boys. My youngest boy is nearly 8 and has ASD. He attends a fantastic SN school in the area and although I get a lot of professional help and support from his school it would be great to share thoughts and opinions with others who are walking in the same shoes as myself.

Klou Report post Posted May 6, 2006 Hi Gardenia Welcome and to anyone else who is new. I agree this site is addictive, especially when you are researching a hot topic. I find I have waves of addiction to it, in between getting on with everything that has to be done and then I don't come in here for weeks. Hope you find what you are looking for.

TheNeil Report post Posted May 7, 2006 Hi Gardenia - you've probably noticed that there's quite a lot of us who hail from the North East (I'm a Redcar lad myself but now exiled to the wilds of North Yourshire) so you're guaranteed to find someone to have a good natter to Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
