[QUOTE="footballersmum, post: 389934"] Hi Midwest mom, thanks for replying! It's so easy to feel alone in the real world, the Internet's a great place! I feel better already :happy:! We're in Spain, originally from the UK - my difficult child sees a psychiatrist and psychologist and takes medications to help with concentration and impulsiveness. There is no support at school, we have to fight to get his diagnosis recognised by his individual teachers. There is no 'welfare state' system as such unless you have a high percentage score on the disability assessment and difficult child is not in that category. Maybe that's why his basic education is so important - without it, even with 3 languages, he's unemployable. <sigh>. We have no help as a family - ADHD still isn't taken seriously where we live (small town) although things are improving slowly - we're 2 hrs from Barcelona and things are filtering down from there! I know what you mean about 'not living forever' - I want him to be set up.. Thankyou again [/QUOTE]
