What have you.............

Hi Jan

Looks like you have passed something on afterall... Its a legacy that will travel through generations

What have you.............

I know in some ways it is a morbid subject, but after the discussions that went on today, it got me thinking.

I thought about not just the practical aspects but of the other little things that we take for granted in life.

Little things such as "manners". My friend made every excuse under the son for her son's, at times, extremely rude behaviour,reasoning that he had Autism. Now that she isnt here, he is struggling with others adn the impact his behaviour is having on others.

She and I had "words" over the years about these difficulties that she was creating for him. With having observed her, I made a consious decision to ensure my son could pass himself where ever he went. He is known in his school for his old fashioned manners
I was brought up to believe, should it be that you dont have anything, you will always open a door with "manners"......

What have you.............

I was sitting today for hours trying to sort out a problem that a very close friend left behind when she died recently. She was aware that she was going to die, yet hadnt put anything into place for her teenage son who has special needs. She didnt sort out legal gaurdian etc..and now, the mess it horrendous.

His IQ is too high for Diability Services, his mental health is not affected, yet he cant cut up his own food. Why, because his mother cosseted him so much that he has no life skills at all. He has been left a legacy that will affect every aspect of his life..the edges are now fraying and his life is unravelling.

Her death made me sit back and think about what I need to do for my son, decide who he will live with if the need arises. To sort out the financial arangements and have everything in order should I go on my merry way to the disco in the sky.

There are a group of us who are in similar position and when we looked at each other at her funeral I raised the question..”What have you in place?”

No one did...........


What life skills have you passed on to your children/nieces/nephews/ grandchildren?
What have you been taught by others

RE: Is it gone?

Been on here far too long

RE: Is it gone?

Why Oh Why are ye all getting at each other about a muppet. Its has happened before and will happen again, this is the Internet afterall

A place where some people's imagination takes flight

Where some claim to be something that they are not..its about perception

Perception is that persons reality

Sadly some realities are now too good, and sadly some bring out the worst in human nature

Some are fantastic

Some are fantasty

So.............................take a deep breath, remove your hands from the and chill

RE: does anyone have a speical kid??

The typos...my apologies

RE: does anyone have a speical kid??

Its different here in the North, we have to have the OT sign off on it. The school have put pressure on her, but she is holding her ground on this issue, even though she was the one who diagnosed "Acute Sensory Difficulties"!

I had great difficulties from the begining with the medical proffession here, as I had his diagnosis done privately. The waiting lists were far to long at that time. Going privately initially closed all the doors for the therapies, 10 years ago, within the NHS who provide them.

I ended up chasing services one by one, speech and laungage etc..

Its been a hard slog battling, yet, it taught me to be a stronger person.

He could read, yet he couldnt write by the time he left primary scholl, no matter what I did or said to the Eduaction Board. He was placed in the bottom tier of the 1st years, with the possibility of being moved into the "Unit" if he didnt improve..

2 Years ago, he broke all the fingers in his right hand, then and only then did they give him a scribe for his exams. I received a phonecall from the school, who were stunned when he scored 100% in every subject!! They tested him again with higher standard work, resulted in moving up 5 levels, and now sitting his GCSE getting A* at present..just goes to show what a simple thing can do for the child and lessen the stress for the parent.

RE: does anyone have a speical kid??

You will find that Aspies and Ausies are more or less them same, not much of a difference, its based on their IQ.
I found that the diagnosis was only helpful in his education , not anywhere else. His IQ is off the charts, considered a genius, yet has great difficulty in writing which then affects his exams, schoolwork etc.

Fighting a battle these past 7 years to get the OT to sign off on letting him use a laptop in school, the teachers want it, he wants it, yet the auld biddy believes he needs to keep his fine motor skills.

Having kids like ours can be so stressful, I found that it was the external battle with the medical proffession the hardest....

a lot!!
