There was so much love, emotion and quiet but devastating power in @ElaineMcgreevy ‘s conference presentation for @AusomeIreland on Exploring Emotions. I have never ‘felt’ someone’s words in that way outside of poetry. Extraordinary 🙏
Excellent thread @75ThunderRoad. And further evidence for our 12 Recommendations and 3 Asks: 1. MH & wellbeing registration code 2. Attendance Code of Practice 3. End truancy laws @NotFineinSchool @Noschoolfines @EdPolAlliance @hiddendepths @BenDavis1972

So true.
As ever, a detailed thread from @75ThunderRoad about the challenges faced by families when it comes to their child’s mental health and wellbeing.

Mental Health, School Attendance and Mixed Messages about "Medical Evidence" - A Thread If you're the parent or carer of a child who is living with mental health issues and struggling to attend school regularly, you'll likely want three things more than anything... 🧵
If you think that being able to respond to cues from her baby means she isn’t autistic please remember that adult ants respond to cues from larvae and ask yourself if you really think autistic people can’t respond to a baby’s cues.
@MindCharity This is shocking that a MH charity is having to reassure the most vulnerable in society about the unevidenced based spoutings off of a prime minister 🙄 Better perhaps to invest in scientifically evidence based treatments and ways to support, treat and care for people 🙂
This government is literally causing additional trauma on top of existing Mental Health needs, that people can’t access support for 😭 How in the world do they think this will play out? In a positive way? I doubt this very much. They know the result of these actions

The news today might feel scary if you're currently off work for your mental health. We get it 💙 We just want to reassure you that these changes are *not* coming into effect right now. 1/2
💫 New workbook for children to share their experiences of school 💫 Written with autistic children in mind but could be useful for everyone. An opportunity for children to explore their feelings and those around them to understand. Available on Amazon
Fun fact: reading Tony Attwood’s work fresh after my autism diagnosis actually made me hate myself more and wonder why I existed if I was to be such a burden. His work continues to harm other autistics, imo, yet he is still afforded platforms to talk about us.

@AnnMemmott I feel better that my gut instinct that this seems harmful was right. I'm NT parent to a ND child, & there is so much to learn in order to best support & advocate for her. It's scary to know how much harmful "treatment" is pushed by people who look & sound credible.
Wouldn’t this be interesting 🤔

@AnnMemmott lets do a seminar on how to reduce NT social competition, hierarchical behaviour, pointless small talk and gossip
@AnnMemmott But autistic people are not listed as people who should attend.
Wait, what? How to reduce time spent on an autistic person's special interest?

@autisticbutter1 Yes… sensory differences are accepted but only if they fit within our agreed three item policy! And with capital letter special permission!
Do other autistics find writing the social nicety preamble of emails utterly exhausting? I could do with a menu of neuronormative bs intros to choose from.
@PerinatalBirder It's strange when you happen to be both of those people 🫠
I love the symbiosis in relationships where one is ADHD and the other is Autistic. The former being the only reason the family ever does anything and the latter being the only reason they survive what they do
One of the autism diagnostic criteria in ICD10 that bothers me the most is 'adherence to non-functional routines'. It projects NT prejudice so clearly. Those routines absolutely have a clear purpose.
@rosi_marsh @AutisticDoctor I dont think society currently has a way for it to function properly. We definitely medicalise and alienate people by either diagnosing or refusing diagnosis, but its also important to have that diagnosis to receive support, no dx = removes all supports
@PaulaMc007 @AutisticDoctor Yep, or a list of ways to profit from vulnerable people… if you are being super cynical 🤨
@AutisticDoctor #Oliverscampaign I often wonder who designed the original diagnostic profile for autism. I do believe that we should scrap it & start again with only autistic people designing the diagnostic profile & criteria
@AutisticDoctor @autgeek One of the diagnostic criteria in ICD10 that bother me the most is adherence to 'non functional routines'. It projects NT prejudice so clearly. Those routines absolutely serve as a function to the person.
@AutisticDoctor Amazing! I am an autistic social epidemiology researcher who is working with a similar concept through an indigenous (to North America) lense. Love to connect if that is interesting to you !
There no way to account for that in the current framework. And there is an arbitrary “line” which is essentially meaningless. People on opposite sides of that arbitrary line have far more in common than they do differences.
Ewww the ableism here. No wonder schools are so toxic for disabled and ND children if this is what’s being pushed and celebrated
Also great to see that the site continues to develop. These posters were designed by our excellent librarian, Mr Harris, and are in every classroom - and now on the corridors to reinforce our message and ethos.
@PebbleAutism @AusomeIreland Thank you. You're so generous
@MRose_Marketing @ElaineMcgreevy @AusomeIreland Wasn’t it so incredibly moving
@PebbleAutism @ElaineMcgreevy @AusomeIreland Oh my... @ElaineMcgreevy broke me today; but in a good, beautiful, deeply meaningful way 💕💕💕
There was so much love, emotion and quiet but devastating power in @ElaineMcgreevy ‘s conference presentation for @AusomeIreland on Exploring Emotions. I have never ‘felt’ someone’s words in that way outside of poetry. Extraordinary 🙏
Ladies & Gentlethems, May I present my very own local authority, and trauma bonded partners (until my children are 25yr old), Derbyshire County Council 👏🤦♀️ <applauds in forfuxake>
Head-scratching bit of SEND info in a recent HoC debate on Derbyshire County Council, courtesy of @tobyperkinsmp DCC has a SEND provision shortage visible from space. It has a hefty SEND capital grant from the DfE. But DCC has spent barely any of it hansard.parliament.uk/commons/2024-0…
