I first noticed that my son was different from an early age. I was a teenage, single mother – what would I know. When he was assessed I had a lot going on & they blamed my parenting. He was finally diagnosed with Asperger’s syndrome at aged 10, after a lot of support from online friends, who made me question whether it really was me (as I was always “blamed).<\/p>\n

Knowledge is power. I’d like to share what I know, or what has worked for me.<\/p>\n

He is now 16 and at Grammar school and got amazing GCSE results<\/a><\/p>\n

My youngest is 4. I’ve also been saying since he was around 2 that he is on the spectrum – he \u00a0got a Statement of Special Educational Needs<\/a>\u00a0for pre-school has just started School \u00a0(statemented for 20 hrs).<\/p>\n

It seems that he has Sensory Processing Disorder. Please see my other blog<\/a> which also links back here, it was just an easier way to keep all the Sensory Stuff being easier to find and people to follow.<\/p>\n
