@AutisticCallum_ Illness cured me of this. But my 15 year old is suffering very badly from not achieving his own expectations. It’s heartbreaking.

[SEND Insights @senanonymous1]

@AutisticCallum_ And googling something else you remembered about, then remembering you needed to pay a bill.

@AutisticCallum_ My 15 year old has given up on just about everything he used to love because of this

Thank you Dr Charlotte Proudman. I have personally been wronged by Cafcass in the past, causing trauma and illness.

[SEND Insights @senanonymous1]

Well done Dr Jessica for having the courage to speak sense and truth.

[Dr. Jessica Taylor @DrJessTaylor]

Dear CAFCASS,

Here is my public ‘apology’.

The letter they sent me is at the end of this video - I am not about to be bullied over email and so I am pushing this issue into the public domain for you.

I cannot tell you how tired I am of these tactics.

Jess.

@DrJessTaylor Very well said! I’ve personally experienced abusive behaviour from a cafcass officer. This was many years ago but one does not forget. They are not perfect humans and have appeared to me to be poorly trained at times.

@AutisticCallum_ I’m 54 and have worked out over the years that the people who do this have taken an instinctive dislike to me, based on being different and communicating differently. People who don’t take a dislike to me just think I’m “quirky” or unconventional and don’t misunderstand me.

The autistic experience of often being perceived as joking when you’re being serious and being serious when you’re joking.

[SEND Insights @senanonymous1]

@AutisticCallum_ Yes!!!!!!👏🏼

[SEND Insights @senanonymous1]

@AutisticCallum_ Often

[Callum Stephen (He/Him) @AutisticCallum_]

One reason why autistic people’s challenges are often not understood or respected is that many of them are internal/invisible. You can’t see, hear or feel someone else’s sensory overload, executive dysfunction or burnout, so most have no awareness of what these are like for us.

A child in north Wales lost sight in one eye after keeping a hand over it for so long. Psychologists say it was a response to life at home so violent, the child “did not want to see the world through that eye”.

A heartbreaking failure of safeguarding.

@AutisticCallum_ I listened to the audio book. Great story!

[SEND Insights @senanonymous1]

@AutisticCallum_ Also, falling in love with the main characters and researching them meticulously.

@MarinaPurkiss Privileged kids who get premium education are there more to network than anything else. Waste of resources. Society is skewed because these people are bred for power and personal gain, at the expense of the people they are supposedly “serving”.

[SEND Insights @senanonymous1]

@AutisticCallum_ Every day.

[Dr Adrienne Barnett @BarnettAdrienne]

Removing children from their mothers in family court proceedings in the name of parental alienation and related pseudo scientific beliefs is the worst, most harmful social engineering experiment of our time. States internationally have to stop this cruelty.

@lordmiles Excellent! Rich folks freeing up their assets! . This has to be parody.

WTAF. Doctor NOT struck off for “one-off” rape.
The legally qualified chair of the medical tribunal panel, Angus Macpherson, wrote: "The Tribunal considered that this was a one-off event in Dr Foy-Yamah's personal life.
