🧵1/2 @GMB - which ones of the below counts as skiving? 1. My child didn't go to school because she is depressed and locked herself in her room for days and won't talk to anyone. 2. My child has been self harming and talking about suicide

If only the problem was attendance. If only the real issue was just that children aren’t at school, and so they can’t learn. For then the solution would be so simple. (illustration @_MissingTheMark) 1/

Absolutely appalled at the title @GMB used “school skivers - parents or teachers responsible?” As the saying goes “kids do well if they can” and some children can’t because of unmet needs at school. Do better @GMB #sen #Autism #ADHD #anxiety

If we spent as much time teaching people to interact with autistic children as we do teaching autistic children to interact with others, the world would be a better place #AutismAcceptanceDay

I often wonder how many children Jo Frost had on her show that were not naughty, but in fact neurodivergent. This is a very stigmatising comment to make for someone with such a large platform. They are not labels, they are a medical diagnosis which brings support for a child.

I feel sorry for all the kids who do not know what it was to sit down in your school uniform and watch Newsround, Blue Peter & then Neighbours every weeknight! #NeighboursFinale

Be very careful if you send your tablet or phone back to @VodafoneUK for repair! Sent our child’s back and was told it’s out of warranty because it has this damage! We even went into the shop to send it so it wasn’t damaged. It was immaculate when it was sent.

A topic we discussed yesterday on @Clubhouse Neurodivergent folk: who says things then completely panics & overthinks that you have been rude and ruminate on it for weeks?!! #Autism #ActuallyAutistic #ADHD #Neurodivergent

Could two followers please copy and re-post this tweet? I'm trying to demonstrate that someone is always there, especially at this time of year. Call 0800 689 5652 (National Suicide Prevention Helpline UK). Just two. Any two. Copy, not retweet. Let’s all look out for each other.

Absolutely delighted to be part of an #ActuallyAutistic team @AskAutistics that has convinced @Clubhouse to no longer promote usage of the 🧩 symbol. This is fantastic, everyone involved, love and strength forevermore. We can, do and will continue to change the narrative #Autism
