Cant I even go to asda without you crying for me Daz?

I couldn't have a nap yesterday, don't see why you should be able to shop!!!!!!!!

Well, just so you dont think I'm dead or anything, I'm going to the flicks this afternoon, to see G-Force. Commando guinea pigs, oh joy

Thats Hilarious!! Mr Grumpy, tough guy going to watch a kids film about guinea pigs!!!!!

Thats made me laugh!

I have my sensitive side Ljay Ben's aspergers dictates that I'll be watching films like this for a while yet, he's not into boring 'real world' stuff.
Kind of envy him really.

Going to see that at the weekend in 3D with my daughter at the weekend. Gonna feel a right prat with the gigs on

Had some experience working with people with Aspergers, met some amazing kids and adults, never won a debate though! 

Ben wants his own computer in his room, but no way!
Half an hour on his own and I'd be getting phone calls from the pentagon.

Ben is 10 now. He's a little darling but can be very demanding. But he's got a cheeky face so gets away with murder

Here he is at his holy communion:

Ahh, bless! Harry too has an angelic look about him but would cause murder in an empty house! With help from his 2 year old brother of course!
We have a diagnosis of high functioning autism. It should be aspergers but as he showed delay with his speech due to low muscle tone and a struggle to form words they couldn't diagnose it!
He does really well though despite mobility and feeding problems, he defied the odds and has settled into mainstream school brilliantly.

Stick with the high functioning autism Ljay. Aspergers carries no benefits as far as one-to-one tuition or financial help goes. Aspergers kids are expected to muddle through and, although Ben is brilliant at his studies, some are not so fortunate and have learning difficulties as well. It's not a fair system and if it wasn't for Maureen being so knowledgeable (being a head teacher) we would have been adrift in a sea of despair at times.

Thank you.
We had benefits before his diagnosis fortunately so its not made a lot of difference. He has full 1:1 support at school which is a mine field as we live in wales but he goes to school in england (less than a mile away).
Know exactly where you are coming from in the sea of despair though!
I've known since he was born that he was autistic. My professional background is with learning disabilities so I wasn't completely clueless, didn't divulge what experience I had unless I wasn't getting any joy though! I was just a neurotic mother being pushed from pillar to post and we didn't get a diagnosis till he was 4.
The school have been really good with him, though some parents have said that if hes disabled enough to need 1:1 then he shouldn't be in the school! (no one has said this in my hearing as yet, can't think why!!)

People say its a shame, but it doesn't bother Harry, he doesn't know any different! I wouldn't change him for the world, I am so proud of him!
