Hi everyone.
We're the parents of three children - two year old twins, one of who has been verbally dx'ed by paed as having "classic autism with associated learning disability".
I'm in the middle of a huge battle with Social Services, about what they should offer and when they should offer it. The "Family Support Worker" who visited, admitted that for children of DS's age they offered next to no services.
I have some really clear ideas about what we as a family would find helpful. However, I'm not sure that my expectations are reasonable, common, feasible - and it's also clear that what's available varies massively depending on where you are.
So... my question, could we have a quick rundown, where are you and what services do you get from S.S.?
