She’s also starting to try and slip in “disabled child” vocabulary and advice to her stories. As though after ignoring Riley for years, she’s suddenly some expert on stimming and sensory needs
Came on here to say the same thing.
For 4 years there was no mention of her being disabled and for someone who is a complete oversharer of her children she never used to show or mention anything about stimming or sensory needs. That’s just started cropping up the last few months.
If it’s behaviour that she’s exhibited for a long time then I’m still at a loss as to how they went so long without support.
The home physio that she’s getting now is great but I can’t understand why these interventions weren’t put in place ages ago.
And correct me if I’m wrong but they had a child health nurse visit at school and Riley didn’t complete the hearing assessment. Totally fine, I know that these assessments don’t always work out when the child has lost interest in participating. But did she say they were now on a wait list for further assessment?
After everything this child has been through and all the “cracks she’s slipped through” wouldn’t you just take her to get assessed privately asap? Just to ascertain if there is another area that she needs support or treatment with?
