Great interview, we're an autism/adhd family, I strongly think my Dad's unique talents were adhd rooted. Our kids are diagnosed autistic and we've had very similar experiences to John, particularly the struggle for education adjustments ending in tribunal. I'm really glad this article exists.
worth adding that we won the tribunal, we made our own case without a lawyer, we did a lot of research and had help from SENDIASS. Lots of people in our situations can't easily access legal representation but there is a lot of support, Fightback is a really good charity supporting families navigating the system.
