Is it possible for your bf to attend a parenting course? I went on a course called "The Early Bird". It was primarily aimed at newly diagnosed and for parents, carers, TA's etc. It was enormously helpful. Over the years I immersed myself in learning everything I could about Autism. I know without ta...

In hindsight, I should've home schooled a long time ago, and like your son,my daughter's had some really horrible effects from anxiety. it's so difficult, as we listen to the 'professional' advice that school offer, plus are 'guided' by medical staff.

I'm utterly terrified at the prospect of home schooling! I don't know where to start or how to do it.

In all the years of 'education', my daughter has not 'learnt ...

DD would love to be home schooled, but in all honesty I doubt my own ability to do it.I am not academic at all and I also doubt if dd would actually listen to my 'teaching'! She loves being at home,loves her pc and enjoys 'socialising' on appropriate forums (actually says she finds it easier - for o...

So sticking it through would be the better option? She is so capable but school is a terrifying place for her. I wish there were schools specifically for children with Aspergers.

Hi, I've been lurking in the backround for quite some time on this site, and thought I would ask you for your opinions. DD has dx of ASD, she is in mainstream about to return into yr8 (aged 12). Has a statement of sen, and her 1;1 TA is likey to be taken from her as it's 'not the norm' in secondary ...
