I had it for years so did my son, he was/is ADHD and was never invited to birthday partys while his brother who is a year older was invited everywhere to sleep overs to partys to clubs you name he he was a social butterfly, it made it hard work for me.

I became one of the scout leaders so they couldnt talk about him too much there however after going camping while seven months pregnant and being told if I didn't go then he couldn't as they was not willing to make any allowences and keep an extra eye on him for me, even though I had been a scout leader for over two years.

They was no help at all.

They was aware of my marriage (which was bad) they was aware of his problems and his medication but still not interested.

I left in the end as another pregnancy stopped me from carrying on so I removed Christian from it and got into debt for a swimming pool which was a life saver.

Suddenly he was being invited places and kids wanted to come to my house.

It annoyed me but I put up with it as I loved my son so I smiled at the parents who was talking about me and him and acted as if nothing mattered.

It helped my son who was totaly oblivious to the fact they only wanted to be his mates to swim in the pool.

At school I was ignored by all the parents as if one talked to me the others would of ignored her (this happened once and she said sorry but couldnt take the ignoring).

I would have a party for Christian and no one would attend I mean no one. So we made our own fun and had a family party for him.

I must of done somthing wrong as he ended up in prison so all the meds all the hospital appts all the extra time spent with him was for nothing.

Give your son a from me and tell him someone in Scotland is saying a prayer for him and his mum tonight.

Trish.

I would do the same things again.
