Guest guest Posted March 21, 2005 Report Share Posted March 21, 2005 What a terrible thing to do, to kick you out of their home and to tell you that there is nothing wrong with your son. What people will say....makes me upset to. What a great mom standing up for your son and leaving. I think the in laws need some knowledge on Autism and maybe how to treat someone.I hope that everything goes well when you sit down and talk to the children.

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2005 Report Share Posted March 22, 2005 Hi all, I real all the posts and it seems to me that we have all had some kind of experience of the same. Me included. I have 3 ASD kids and my mother does always get it...she's getting a little better but some times tells me that I am bullying the school because I have to fight for services. My now ex husband wrote to me that the kids do not have any problems at home. Autism aparently only rears it's face when the children walk through the front door at the school and it goes away when they walk out the back door at the end of the day. Again, this was in writing from the father of 3 autistic spectrum children! I told him that there were going to be so many parents that would be estatic to hear that. So, take notice all of you....your kids only have issues at school!!! Yeah right. I don't see the inlaws anymore...it breaks my heart. again..Yeah right. The boy that is being barred by the grandparents to visit...Shame on that grandfather. I hope you can sort it out. I hope that the child is okay. These kids have enough in there buckets to carry. They should be able to count on All of their family to love and support them. As parents of these special children we get judged on a regular basis and it is usually unfairly. Grocery stores, Walmart, playground...everywhere, especially when there is a social skills issue. I try to chalk it up to ignorance of society. You as parents know what you do and deal with on a daily basis and we should not ever have to feel that we are being judged. I say we should have a round of Applause to all parents with ASD kids! Pat yourselves on the back daily for a job well done. You are all my heros! Naomi E. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 23, 2005 Report Share Posted March 23, 2005 Dear Naomi, I have the opposite of what you do. The AS only rears it's ugly head at home, and in certain places when were out. BJ's father said he has never had any probs with him, it's me that does.lol. But in all fairness to BJ, he only seen his dad for 6hrs a wk and now doesnt see him at all, which i must point out, is his choice. Because his older sister doesn't go either. And his father just isn't interested. So i know where BJ's grandfather got the bullets to fire, and i have no intention what so ever of ever taking the kids back there. If he wants to be that way he can, but his not directing it at BJ. BJ hasnt said alot over it,apart fromhe wont be able to have his xmas presents boxing day, and why did i ever bother taking him there in the first place when he was little, so we could be thrown out. Dont think he really understands why he hasn't done it in the past. But i will as u suggested pat myself on the back. best wishes netty >From: " nomepaints " <nomepaints@...> >Reply-Autism and Aspergers Treatment >Autism and Aspergers Treatment >Subject: Worst Weekend ever >Date: Tue, 22 Mar 2005 14:24:46 -0000 > > >Hi all, >I real all the posts and it seems to me that we have all had some >kind of experience of the same.

Guest guest Posted March 23, 2005 Report Share Posted March 23, 2005 Thanks for your support , it's greatly appreciated. I explained everything to the kids, unfortunately it's upset my 5 yr old more than the others. BJ is more upset about hows he going to get his xmas presents boxing day off them.but did ask why i bothered to take him there in the first place when he was little. I can honestly say now, i'm proud of myself for not loosing my temper, and kept talking calmly throughout it all. I was annoyed at myself for not saying more or maybe i should of said things a diff way. But i'm not now, i've got over the upset part, now the anger bit is settling in. Thanks again Nettyxx >From: " mamashowman " <mamashowman@...> >Reply-Autism and Aspergers Treatment >Autism and Aspergers Treatment >Subject: RE: Worst Weekend Ever >Date: Mon, 21 Mar 2005 18:23:57 -0000 > > >What a terrible thing to do, to kick you out of their home and to >tell you that there is nothing wrong with your son.
