[QUOTE="wolonfab, post: 28412, member: 2797"] Hi all.... The problem is i have tried to video it and difficult child is very smart...he knows and he will put on a show of the easy child..... I tried a tape recording one day but it doesn't get as much attention as they cant tell what is going on ...maybe i am pinching him in their minds...... Marg is right re our health system...they don't put them in for obs unless they are bad...i mean after he slit his wrist after Christmas they sent him home.... he was there for 1.5 hours just enough to stuck it together as they refused to try and sew it....(a mess it was and they would have to operate and take alot of skin away)... i am sure no girls parents are ever gonna let him near their girls...his arm looks awfully scared but he thinks it the most beautiful thing in the world i rang westmead children's (our teaching hospital) after being sent home from local and was advised that my best option is to wait till he is really bad and then take him in to my local and beg for help but she said he has to be really bad and again for being autistic he is bloody brilliant at play acting sane and perfect.... Westmead wont touch him even as an out patient for more assessment.... He has been seeing the mental health phsyc now for 5 weeks x 40 mins at a time... they play and draw but she said he is very good for her.... Thus why she wants me observed to see what i am doing the wrong way at home.... she made a appointment for me to chat but we have had to wait for 3 weeks as she only works 2.5 days a week..... So i am due in next Thurs... she said if it gets too hard she might be able to fit me in earlier..I said to her whats too hard? i said i have to deal with this every day.. I don't know where else to bash my head and stamp my feet...... I guess i just needed a vent....I know you guys can only offer support and understanding but i think if i had of followed my ex (hes American) back to the USA we might have had an easier time getting help.....but then again alot of you are having just as hard a time as us..... I just keep believing it will get better...and i stay away from the church people i know who say he just needs an exorcism..... and that i don't pray enough over him at night..... on that note I'll chat later [/QUOTE]
