Can I ask you a question??
As some of you know Noah is/has been having assessments due to his speech and social communication problems. He also attends a special needs nursery (as well as reg nursery)
I have come to accept (even though we have no official diagnosis) that he may well be on the spectrum and that he does need special help in certain area's etc
My question is about your OH's
Did they find it hard to accept that their child has problems?
Dp has just come home from picking Noah up from his afternoon session at the specialist nursery, he told me he was offered a book by one of the staff members which had tips/exercises for you to do at home with your child. He flatly refused it and seems to be so against them judging Noah and treating him as Autistic.
Im just so worried now that if we do get the ASD diagnosis that he isnt going to accept it. He has said in the past that he doesnt like children being "Labelled" at such a young age. I fear he is going to think I pushed Noah into this situation ie being assesed etc
Im feeling really lost now, anyone have similar with their OH?
