[QUOTE="DDD, post: 239097, member: 35"] I need to find out [B]exactly[/B] what might be available through that agency and the head representative in this District is a double talking, vague promising government worker!! For over a year they have been volunteering to help little difficult child (now 18 and soon to graduate from H.S.). They have us come in for meetings that basically repeat "we will be seeking ways to serve you as a client"....then nada. Yesterday the lady called difficult child (who has Aspergers and NO social skills to speak of) and verified "he is still interested in getting services". Check. She told him "we will be seeking ways to serve you". Check. She told him it is a long process. Finally......after ten minutes on the phone difficult child slammed the phone down to end the call. :frowny: She telephoned me to relay the above and had the audacity to say "you know we do NOT have to serve any clients who can not be polite and cooperative". :raspberry-tounge: I just couldn't sweet talk. Politely and with a stable soft voice I basically said I was sorry he chose to be rude. on the other hand he and I have been having meetings for over a year with "the Department" and the only thing that has been specifically accomplished was the requiredevaluation..which required he give up four days of his five day spring break AND ended up being faulty. Does anyone know (or know of a specific site that knows) what possible types of help I can aim for? I think we are in a lose-lose situtation and I am running out of energy. DDD [/QUOTE]
