what our special children need

Our kids miss out on all the important things in life others take for granted.
They get excluded from many things that really are a part of how society works
school trips because of risk assessments,classes because they are seen a distraction,
to people without difficulties learning,Party`s because they are judged as different
or wierd graduation because there difficulties mean they haven`t been able to get the results needed or because of not much teaching time and being excluded so much from learning.or because you can only attend based on good behaviour
It`s not just the children it`s adults with difficulties as as well.
Its is also holidays because of finding a place that can meet the needs of families,
you here of people complaining because a kid is crying on a flight and it is spoiling there journey.
It`s not being able to do the same outside activities as others as an independant person because you have to find clubs that that have people trained in disabilities so they can be safe.
well i decided long ago my kids won`t miss out i as a mum will give them these things that others won`t.
I want to share the most special night my daughter had with you all so others know its important to our children and us as parents to have these happy special moments that everyone else has as they have just as much right to experience as every other person in the world .
Unfortunately my daughter was excluded from main stream education a couple of months before her gcse's.she was then made to go to alternate provisions where she was attacked right before her gcse's again .she then was frightened as the person who did it only received a one week exclusion and was then allowed back in the school and was allowed to keep walking past her and stare at her. I had to keep her off which meant she had no teacher time at the most important time. she did how ever attend all her exams and only because i insisted she did them separate from everyone else with an adult in attendance so she felt safe.I made a fuss after every test to motivate her to turn up for the next one.The fact that she didn't get the results predicted does not matter what matters is she attended all and she completed all she was amazing.

8 年What an awesome testimony Faye! While I am sad that you and your beautiful precious daughter had to go through these terrible events, I praise God to hear of your triumphs! God will never test us beyond what he knows we can handle, and when the worst is over, the result is growth?? and new strengths which we didn't even know we were capable of. This is God working in your lives to better prepare you for days ahead. My father and little sister both struggled all of their lives with epilepsy and nervous disorders. Both have since gone to be with the Lord. I admire you and your beautiful precious daughter. Please press on with confidence that will still accomplish even greater this in your lives . I pray HIS CONTINUAL BLESSING FOR YOU AND ALL YOUR FAMILY. Reyes ??????

8 年Sometimes no matter what country you live in children suffer some it's a personal suffering because of disabilities or being different some live a war torn experience that can never be unseen some live in poverty even in our country which is truly awful in times when I see segregation happening again it makes me wonder what we are doing as a collective world and as human beings.kids should be kids playing getting dirty in the mud making real life friendships I miss the life when I was a child it was safe to leave your doors open and to let your children play out you always saw groups of kids in the street community's looked out for everyone and family's were the most important things.Not every advancement made in the world today is good but if enough people from all walks of life stand up together we can make it good by allowing compassion again
