hey @bartbonte ! my 9yr old F is a HUGE fan of your colour games, he plays every day and recreates levels in a variety of media - eg we now have 'pink' themed xmas tree decs. He asked me to message you to see if a 'white' game is coming. Would make his year to hear back!

@Shrink_at_Large The Body Keeps the Score. Because it made sense of my experience of life.

@SpcialNdsJungle @catrionamoore13 This. And as a result I am now under MH team, on high-rate PIP and receiving 28 hours a week social care support. This will cost the state more than it would have to simply meet my children's needs from the outset.

Our research shows that more than 40% of #ParentCarers have thought about suicide.

Here's what we want policy makers & professionals (across health, social care & education) to do to ensure better support for disabled children and their families.

Our latest research shows that more than 40% of parent carers have thought about suicide.

The new government must take action & put real support in place for disabled children & their families.

The misdiagnosis of autistic distress in the mental health system. A thread. 🧵

When I am asked why I wrote Girl Unmasked, I say that I was angry. Which is true...

[Lotte Lane @mslottelane]

@ChopsyBristol I follow your questions on WDTK, like a true fan girl. Was infuriated to see this response in my inbox this morning. Don't know how you do it... I'd be bald from tearing out my hair by now!

Dear @bearsnacksuk, my son and I have audited two boxes of cocoa #alphabites to discover there are no e's within. We were rather disappointed by this. Is there a problem with your e supply? Sincerely, a troubled mother.

Bristol City Council's Safety Valve agreement has been slammed by parents and campaigners, calling out 'spin' and a 'debt recovery scheme with arbitrary targets': https://t.co/jzCJuiFqQT

@southwestehcp @ChopsyBristol It's very sad. However think it would be interesting to know whether her brother felt similarly, his voice is missing from this story.

[Lotte Lane @mslottelane]

@ChopsyBristol Silly idea, but maybe if they provided suitable provision in county (or didn't shut down specialist schools on dubious grounds to sell on to property developers), there might be fewer children requiring EOTAS?

[Lotte Lane @mslottelane]

@ChopsyBristol Any idea what 'enablers' and 'mitigations' translates to in human?

[Lotte Lane @mslottelane]

@Erasmus_OConnor @ChopsyBristol Firm agree. I imagine not ignoring problems until they get to a legal situation would help too. I would be interested to know how much £££ is spent on SEND-related legal costs.

@ChopsyBristol I note no reference to 'statutory' needs in slide 2

[Lotte Lane @mslottelane]

@ChopsyBristol @southwestehcp Please do. If you would be willing to share recording I'd love to hear, I was disssociating through most of it

[Lotte Lane @mslottelane]

@RowdyKate2 @larrainesharri3 @CastlefordAcad I respect that. I know other children who would feel the same.

[Lotte Lane @mslottelane]

@The_Deaf_Tribe @larrainesharri3 @CastlefordAcad Looking at the current position of our country, I don't think apathy has served us well. It's time to teach our children to challenge injustice, not mindlessly comply.
