🩶 Every Pair Tells a Story

🩶 Leo, age 8 – Bolton

I’m Leo and I’m 8 years old, I have an EHCP and ASD. I find school hard and learn differently but school don’t seem to understand my needs and I seem to get suspended quite a lot.
My voice is never heard so my parents are my voice.
I just want to be listened to and have an education like all children.

🩶 Otto, age 5 – Gloucestershire

He’s been failed by the playgroup he attended and his first school who ignored all behaviours and kept putting it down to parenting. He moved school for the start of Year 1 and they instantly suspected he’s AuDHD.
We now have the battle of the system to get the support that he requires. We know it’s a long road ahead and the impact this is having on the entire family is tiring, draining and detrimental.

🩶 Poppy, age 11 – Buckinghamshire

ADHD and ASD which won’t be recognised by the school without a formal diagnosis. Four-year wait for an appointment for a diagnosis unless you go private.
Anxiety from ASD has made her rip her hair out, no professional available to support, just left as a family to get on with it.
Now pulling nails off, twelve-month wait to see anyone as she has constant infections in nail beds. Lives on antibiotics.
Dietician says she has ARFID but won’t diagnose, recommended CAMHS, four-year wait.
Constant fight to speak to a professional and then they say they can’t do anything.
Have a child with bald patches, nails missing from hands, dysregulated daily, eating a limited diet with no support or acknowledgement from any professional.
Have been told several times that GP needs to organise a multidisciplinary meeting, GP says they don’t know what that is.

🩶 Liberty, age 12 – Cornwall

Permanently excluded. School refused to help with an EHCP application. School removed support measures they had in place.
The school regularly triggered meltdowns and instead of supporting they decided to punish.
My child has ADHD and the system has failed her.

🩶 Joshua, age 24 – Bucks / Suffolk

🩶 Tiana, age 12 – Staffordshire

Despite struggles and meeting the legal criteria denied an EHCP assessment, LA conceded at mediation with no further evidence provided and then delay tactic after delay tactic.
Despite all local mainstreams stating they can’t meet need, once we finally got an EHCP they named the nearest one anyway, even stating in an email “if mum refuses to name a mainstream just name the closest one.”
Again conceded specialist just before tribunal.
My daughter’s mental health has taken a huge hit and she feels isolated and lost.
If myself and the professionals were listened to originally she wouldn’t have missed out on two years of education, including transition into high school, nor would she feel so broken and excluded.
She’s a human being, the next generation, bright, funny, creative, caring, nurturing and exceptional, she just doesn’t fit the box of society and therefore is excluded and made to feel wrong and broken, she is not a statistic.

🩶 Rose YR, age 8 – Devon

Rose is at her third education setting in so many years. She has been failed by all three providers.
I am currently fighting for her to be seen and heard.

🩶 G, age 2 – Hull City Council

My daughter G is two years old and has complex medical and developmental needs. She is PEG-fed, has airway disorders and is on home oxygen. She has global developmental delay, hypotonia, a physical disability and feeding difficulties including ARFID and aspiration risk plus much more.
She needs constant supervision, specialist equipment and 1:1 support to stay safe and access daily life.
Despite this, our Local Authority initially refused even to assess her for an EHCP. We had to formally challenge that decision before they finally agreed.
Since then we’ve faced months of delays, ignored evidence, missed deadlines and repeated rudeness and dismissiveness from staff.
It has now been fifteen months and G still doesn’t have a lawful EHCP. We’ve had to escalate complaints multiple times and even a Stage 2 investigation confirmed major failings.
On top of everything, the council also breached our data protection twice, sharing and losing G’s personal information without consent.
It has been a constant battle just to have her needs taken seriously and her privacy respected. We are now under the tribunal, small claims court and the ombudsman all at once.
Communication is restricted due to the Local Authority labelling us as vexatious when all we have ever wanted is for G to be supported safely with the same rights and dignity as any other child. Families should not have to fight this hard to be heard.

🩶 Morgan, age 14 – Staffordshire

Mainstream setting broke down after transition to high school and they couldn’t meet need.
Eighteen months out of education while waiting for his EHCP to be updated and specialist named.
Morgan felt rejected, not good enough and lost without his education.
He’s academically a high achiever and deserves, as do all these children, a nurturing safe environment to learn and grow in.

🩶 Noah, age 9 – region not stated

Poem titled “Spend a Day in Our Shoes”
Rows of shoes, all small, worn and waiting. Each pair a story, each pair holds a name, a name of a child, paused between meetings and maybes.
These shoes have stood in countless lines, waiting rooms, assessments, promises.
Every pair of shoes bought with hopes of fun, delight and joy. Now they wait, battered and scuffed by phones, by inboxes, for something called support, for something that never quite arrives.
We fill in another form, read another leaflet, join another meeting, take more notes. Our children grow older while the system grows slower.
What are we waiting for? For someone to notice? For fairness to wake up? For education to mean every child?
Our children get one chance at childhood, not a draft version, not a waiting list, one.
And we will not let it be stolen.
So we stand side by side by these rows of shoes, the ones too small, too big, too tired, and we say, enough.
Spend a day in our shoes, spend a day in theirs, feel the weight of every step they take through a world that should help them to flourish.
Then tell us honestly, after the waiting, after the words, what are we actually waiting for?

🩶 Remy, age 8 – Barking and Dagenham

Remy has had an autism diagnosis since he was 5, however because he was meeting his educational milestones I was consistently told he didn’t need an EHCP.
As Remy got older his behaviour started to become harder for the school to manage and they used to phone me four times a week to go into school and support this. Naturally this impacted my employment and as a result I had to leave my job.
Remy’s school eventually agreed they couldn’t meet his needs and applied for an EHCP.
However, four weeks after applying he was permanently excluded from school (January 2025).
Despite him being permanently excluded the LA exceeded their twenty weeks to issue the plan and it was finalised in July 2025 naming a school that isn’t suitable.
Since naming a school they have withdrawn the ten hours of tuition they were previously providing and my tribunal date is October 2026.
He has been without any provision at all since July 2025 and we have been left with no support.

🩶 Dan, age 15 – Hampshire
Being told that my child would use an EHCP as a crutch and give up “trying hard”. Being told that even if we got an EHCP school might say they couldn’t meet need and would therefore have to move schools. Not having her diagnosis believed as it was privately obtained. Not been given a full time education since April 2024.

🩶 Harry, age 9 – Norfolk
Harry has complex needs.
He has been waiting for a school place for over a year.
All schools keep saying they can’t meet his needs.
His twin brother is in mainstream school as he does not need the same support.
Harry has to take his brother to school pick him up, he is seeing other children go to school, he is seeing other children with their friends, he is seeing parents chatting with each other about the school day. I watch him look with sadness as this is what he is missing out on. He feels sad at home and thinks it’s his fault and I tell him everyday that time will come when he can go to school again but deep down I can’t see that happening for many years, if not at all and by then Harry will have no idea what a school is like again

🩶 Kofi McMurtry-fowler, age 7 – Surrey
Kofi has been out of school 2 years now. Surrey don’t answer their phones or emails. We are constantly gas lit. We are exhausted by the constant battle to get any support for him. We can’t get an ot as not in school. Can’t get equipment support. Can’t get a disability social worker as not high enough criteria. We have applied for another assessment but aren’t holding much hope. We are constantly begging for support for Kofi. He has been completely failed by Surrey. We have made a box room into a mini classroom in our home. Just so he has some education. 2 years with no proper education is unfair on him. We will continue to fight for our amazing little boy.

🩶 Lils, age 14 – Teignbridge or Torbay
Lils was removed from school in 2024 as she was struggling to cope in school she was held back to yr 7 for 2 years and put down as naughty or disengaged she struggled to even go to school due to not understaning what was being said dispite haveing an active ehcp in place she struggled with friend ships with comunicating her feeling and understanding the world no one heard our voices whilst held back she was a target of bullying due to this add in her anxity she was not coping and i could see my baby dissappearing so i removed her for a year whilst the l.a aparntley helped find a suitable placement we viewd 4 or 5 schools one we all agreed on then the la gave her a place in a compleatley diffrent school we had no warning no information just a start date this was no good for lils as she dont like change or unexped things so going in to this school she was terrfied luckey for us this school is helping with getting dignosise to help but the damage done by the 2 previouse schools still to this day have left lasting scars on my girl even now her ehcp lady refuses to update the ehcp to add in relivent details dispite complaing this has been ingored the current school understamds lil however with out the relevant information on the ehcp how would anyone know how to help the current system is very very broken and dose not help our sen chrildren

🩶 R, age 13 – Leeds
From nursery until year 5 the primary school were telling me there was nothing going on, they saw no need for an assessment. Despite the emotional meltdowns on a regular basis and having to be taken from the car on the street into the school grounds by the head teacher due to school refusal.
I fought and requested assessments myself, and finally got diagnosed middle of year 5. Primary school were on the ball then doing everything they could to support / except apply for an EHCP as there were other children with higher needs and they couldn’t get through all of them. Year 6 was great, so much support given especially for SATs.
High school show around they seemed great again, showed everything they were able to offer. I emailed and called so many times before the start date to try and discuss needs etc with the SENCO. I never heard back. I emailed the headteacher just before the first term of year 7 began with a complaint asking how I’m supposed to trust they will support if they don’t even know my child I had a 3 minute phone call with the SENCO where I told her the briefest information. That was all I heard until a month later when ofsted were due the next day. I suddenly received a pupil passport which said word for word what I had told her on the 3 minute phone call nothing more. Surprise surprise they received a required improvement from ofsted massively due to SEN issues.
Still no changes made, still no support given. By the end of year 7 attendance was almost half what it should have been small part due to school refusal, but mainly because my child would tell any teacher who would listen that they were feeling unwell, and the school would just call and send home It became a daily occurrence Yet the attendance officers never contacted me about the low absence I asked to discuss this and nothing ever came. Eventually just before the end of year 7 I got an actual meeting in person not with the SENCO of course. I asked why they were sending my child home daily, why had no one picked up on the patterns, why are they not trying to support and encourage instead of just automatically sending home. 95 percent of the time we got the unwell phone call there was no illness, it was a case of being overwhelmed and under supported. The school admitted that they were doing wrong, and were going to look into an EHCP. Finally Or so I thought. Because then at the start of year 8 both of those teachers left the school, and we were back to square one.

🩶 Connor, age 13 – Bolton
11 years i tried so much with school to agree to assess my son made you feel worthless you are made to feel like its your fault as a parent that your child has a disability.i have been broken by the system i have lost all my faith in our local council.

🩶 Cameron, age 6 – Lancashire
My child was left told to do another year at nursery because there was no space in special needs school and all mainstream schools could not accept his EHCP because they did not meet his needs.

🩶 Sienna, age 11 – Bury
Daughter started Reception in 2019 ended up having to de register her in 2020. Daughter was depressed, not listened to, cried all day, dragged in by teachers in the morning. I raised concerns regarding sensory issues, stool withholding, School clothes itching They suggested giving her fruit in the morning to coach her in
They pressured me about attendance, had no idea about stool withholding so I had to take in the Eric guidelines. My Daughter hadn’t passed a stool for 8 weeks, Nurse contacted the Head Teacher to advise her my Daughter needed to be kept off School for disimpaction, Head Teacher refused
I was told to put her down by a Teacher when I picked her up to comfort her. Requested a SARs after and the comments about me were disgusting. My daughter was the way she was because I was making her like that, I was a single parent, and I had deliberately been and bought a hi vis jacket so she could see me in the playground I was going to work
They got TAF coming to my house Self referred to Cahms. Daughter received an SPD diagnosis. Cahms kept going on about attachment. Daughter had to have play sessions at Cahms. I specifically told them that she did not like doors shut or certain images, especially superheroes. When my Daughter attended a session there was a huge Spider Man teddy in the room. My Daughter refused to ever go again Finally received an autism diagnosis, however the letter was extremely badly written. I was invited to go in and sit down with a member of the team to help re write it Director of Cahms rang and apologised and the CCG lead was in touch to smooth things over
Requested a SARs from Cahms. Once again the notes were awful about me. A member of Cahms had written prior to any assessments that I was pushing for a diagnosis and it was unlikely my Daughter would get one Requested an EHCP, finally accepted 6 months later. Draft written but was terrible missing lots of information and missed legal deadlines. Awaited final copy and it was missing assessments and important information, once again deadline missed. Promised tutors, my Daughter received nothing
My case went to tribunal in 2024 and my Daughter was awarded EOTIS with a Personal budget. Never heard anything from the LA even after chasing them until October 2024. Caseworker unhelpful, constantly gaslighting me. Still to this present day nothing in place and no personal budget paid. Emails Calls never replied to

🩶 Tilly, age 10 – South East
Masked her whole school life, Failed by the school and Senco who said there was more severe children than her because she's quiet. ELSA is too busy to have a few minutes a day for a chat, so there is no one for her to go to, no one to trust. As her mum I find forcing her into school incredibly hard but even on the toughest days she puts on a brave face and masks but the fight I have to get her this should not be happening. I also the. get the backlack when she comes out. At what point do I put her mental health first without getting school fines At what point is the school going to help and put things into place and stop making me feel like I'm making it all up. 4 years on the waiting list, CAMHS have passed it on to the OWL center and still no one can give me a rough date, no one reply back to your emails, It is so incredibly lonely and utterly heartbreaking.

🩶 Mavis, age 9 – Teignbridge
My daughter has struggled with hearing loss since the age of 3 she shows very clear sigms of adhd autusim i have been fighing for years to get am assment done and the dr agreed she needs the assment she has an ilp amd the school are in agreement she needs to be assessed but they need alot of evidence even tho we have a catloge of evidence and supprt its not enough We have real concerns of high school as her brain work diffrent but the la are fully letting her down my self and a school worker have looked at an ehcp but again because of the dept and lack of authority giving an ehcp is unlikley she will get one when secondrey comes if there is no help in place she will be removed for her own mental health

🩶 Jasmine McMurtry-fowler, age 9 – Surrey
Jasmine has been out of school since July 2025. Her previous school weren’t meeting need or following her ehcp. She is currently homeschooled until a school is found to meet need. Her previous school has lit us constantly for asking questions on why her needs weren’t being met. Case workers didn’t make the school follow the ehcp. Things got so bad Jasmine ended up in hospital due to extreme anxiety caused by this school. She had stroke like symptoms. Very stressful for her and for us as a family to see. Case workers never answer emails or calls. They say they have sent consultations to schools but when I check with the schools , they haven’t been sent them. Case workers lie and don’t do their jobs. We have new case workers every few weeks. They don’t tell you when they have left or that you have a new one. Nightmare. No one in Surrey seems to care.

🩶 Chloe, age 15 – Cambridgeshire
Chloe 15 years old
Whilst she was in primary school, i was made to feel like i was that parent, over worrying over nothing. End of year 4 school realised I was right. They were going to assess her in school and refer to a peadiatrician. Year 5 and 6 covid struck. No assessment or referrals were done. End of year 6 senco said shes showing autistic traits but it was too late to refer.
Started year 7 got through the year with difficulties, referal done to CAMHS to be assessed for ASD. Year 8 anxiety hit its peak coming out with selective mutism. I asked my daughter when did she stop being able to talk to teachers. She said I've never been able to. It broke my heart all those years I was told she was fine in school.
Year 9 she couldnt get in the school door due EBSA, we did a parent led EHCP, we had a huge fight to get her alternative provision. In the months she couldn't attend school she was diagnosed Autistic, high anxiety and eating disorder and auditory processing disorder. We finaly got her an EHCP which funded extra alternative provision. This allowed her to heal enough to start a specialist all girls with autism school. This was all a fight to get it agreed.
She started in year 9 when she should've been year 10.
She finaly found her happy place. A school cares about her.
Then a few months later she started having ticks and dystonia and went on to be diagnosed with Functional Neurological disorder FND which then caused multiple seizures everyday, she then couldnt feel her feet for 3 months and was wheelchair bound.
CAMHS have now diagnosed her with PTSD caused by school trauma.
Shes 15 now just started y10 and life is really hard for her but she pushes on and goes to school most days.
She really is my hero.
We're all broken by all the fights that we had.
If only primary school had taken me seriously in year 1, my daughter may not have suffered the trauma she has.

🩶 Alfie, age 11 – Cambridgeshire
My sons school would not listen to us parents and make any reasnoble adjustments what we asked for which we thought would help, this resulted in alfie becoming disregulated and getting suspended several times, staff did not want to engage with alfie or help him, and simple just gave up on him, he picked up on this and felt like he didnt belont there and hated going to school, he struggled with his mental health because of all of this so we said to the school we wont be sending him back We have been trying for over a year to find a specilist setting but because of his anxiety and the time he has out of shool, all specilist settings have said cant meet needs We had to fight with the LA to get extra funding so school could afford an AP, this took a year to get extra funding for alfie to attend an AP, no help or support was offered from the LA despite asking for it, we have had to keep chasing up the school consultations as they was not being sent, even when they did get sent the LA sent outdated EHCPs and outdated documets They have failed my son, he used to he a bright happy socialble boy, but now he is full of anxiety and struggles to leave the house and caused us parents nothing but worry and stress

🩶 Kaleb, age 14 – Warwickshire
My son, has been failed at each stage of his education and diagnosis process.
Refussed Support and EHCPNA at pre school, refussed EHCPNA at primary School twice. ASD diagnosis process incomplete resulting in non diagnosis. Requested a reassment recieved a diagnosis.
Three separate assesments for ADHD diagnosis due to inconsistent professional assesment required for diagnosis.
Bullied which lead to school refusal. Self harm. Low self esteme.
Phased transition, placed in a secondary school which could not meet needs on all sections of EHCP.
My child was placed in a school with 1600 pupils. He required a class of 5 students.
EBSR, home schooled for several month until an independent specialist provision placement became avaliable.

🩶 Cody, age 19 – Oxfordshire
Late diagnosed took two years to get an echp which wasn’t really tailored to his needs I was forced by schools to drag my child to a olds he wasn’t comfortable wasn’t looked after was heavily bullied and assaulted , he eventually left school in year 8 was left for 4 years at home no sightings no help then was given a tutor for three months, having an ehcp has been pointless no targets met, nothing has changed, he’s now an adult with severe mental health issues echp still isn’t right for him and the help he has been given us from the mental health team he is still being failed by the local authority it has felt like all they wanted to do was forget him but meet his needs and now he suffers from ptsd, anxiety, depression, as well as his complex needs to the point he has wanted to kill himself and hasn’t left our home in the last 4 years

🩶 Zayne collis, age 12 – North Dorset
My son zayne has ASD ADHD and struggles massively with anxiety. He has an EHCP and is on roll at a specialist provision school but does not attend due to them saying they can’t meet his needs. He has been without a school placement for 2 years. He has had little to no AP in place in this time. Zayne’s social circle is now only his mum, dad and older brother Connor. A typical day for Zayne now due to the prolonged absence from school is spending everyday in his bedroom building Lego trains.

🩶 Tyler, age 15 – Stirling
Diagnosis was delayed several times and covid lockdown put extra delays on a diagnosis. Transitioned to High School and put into a small class with 6 other pupil's. With same teacher. No moving classes. Settled in great. 2nd year high school, forced to join mainstream, became school avoidant. School was told he needed support, told there is no extra staff for 1 to 1 teaching. Years went by. Spent less time at school. Now facing deregistering as school have no answers. He will sign his leavers before his 16th birthday. No qualifications at all. Another ghost child, left abandoned to wander the corridors, has been failed.

🩶 Gavin, age 6 – Cambridgeshire
Gavin has an EHCP but is currently in a mainstream school that cannot meet his needs. He has been on a reduced timetable since the term started and the school is not supporting him with his learning. He deserves so much more than this. We will undergo a review of his EHCP and fight for a SEN provision but we were already informed by the LA that it could take 2 years for him to get into a SEN school.

🩶 G01932, age 11 – Surrey
Struggled to secure an EHCP during her early years placement at school.
It was finally achieved.
Struggled all the way through primary which impacted her physical and mental health.
Told mainstream was appropriate year on year at annual review.
Finally agreed specialist for secondary.
September 25 specialist place not found. She's now been home since the summer with only 3.5 hours tuition a week.
She shares daily her mental health is low and she just wants to make friends.
I'm burnt out as mum fighting as it's now been a fight for everything since she was able to walk.
Systems hard to navigate and even harder when you can see it's unlawful what the LA are doing.

🩶 Isaac, age 6 – Norfolk
He was moved out of a smaller setting with more support originally in there for semh and communication and interaction because it didnt offer the same opportunities academically that mainstream did. Couldnt attend school because of the change and less support, anxiety rose, mental health deteriorated, was having night terrors, sleep walking, night time accidents, didnt eat, drink, barely slept, couldnt leave the house, couldnt play. months of pure hell, begging for support, begging for a suitable Education to be shot down everywhere we looked.

🩶 Leo, age 11 – Wiltshire Council
Our son is 11, autistic, and has global developmental delay. We made the decision to home educate him in October 2023 after years of believing that his school and Wiltshire Council were ensuring his needs were met within this school setting. We trusted the professionals involved with his EHCP, the people we thought were experts, who were supposed to be regularly involved, only to discover later how wrong we were.
After hiring two independent neurodivergent advocates to help us due to how complex our own needs are as parents being neurodivergent ourselves, we found out that his EHCP had been out of date by seven years, even though the school continued to hold annual reviews. When we questioned this, we were told that this was just how their system works, that they simply keep the old information on file rather than updating it to reflect a child’s current age and needs.
At first, we felt guilty for not realising sooner, but we are a neurodivergent household ourselves and had trusted the system. We believed that those responsible for his EHCP knew what they were doing and were being honest with us.
While our son was still in school, he would often come home and tell us things that no parent should ever have to hear. I will not go into detail, but many of the things he described were deeply distressing. When I went to the headteacher to raise my concerns, I was met with laughter. They even asked if something was happening at home, as if to shift the blame onto us rather than investigate what was actually happening to our child.
He would come home with bruises and injuries that were never mentioned by staff, and we would have to hear from him what had happened. It was heartbreaking and unacceptable.
At the time, he was placed in a resource base classroom with around 12 to 15 children max, even though he struggles to cope in groups larger than six. The overstimulation and noise were overwhelming for him. He tried to escape from classrooms and even from the school itself on several occasions, but again, we were never told.
At home, he would have meltdowns and emotional outbursts, his way of releasing what he had been masking all day. We repeatedly tried to explain that he masks at school and then decompresses at home, but no one believed us. They said he was too young to be masking.
Since we began home educating, everything has changed. He is calmer, happier, and genuinely learning. He works daily through a structured, neurodivergent friendly approach.

🩶 Darcy, age 10 – Hampshire
Darcy’s school failed her since year R, we were told she wasn’t autistic it was just covid. But as a mum I knew she was. We had to fight to get help from her school numerous meetings and fighting to get the help needs. As a family we paid for her autism assessment and it’s only now she’s in year 6 we have got her an EHCP. But it’s too little too late. Darcy was getting bullied and her mental health deteriorated, I have de registered her from school and I am fighting SEN to get the right education provision for her. SEN are saying the school is right for her. Once anything makes your child suicidal it isn’t right. I will keep fighting.

🩶 Ethan, age 8 – Peterborough
From the second my son could move, walk and talk I knew he was on the spectrum. I started to ask for support as soon as he hit 2 years old. I was told that he would grow out of it and that they wouldnt assess him until 7.
My son masked well in Nursery and again throughout Reception. He went from being a happy exciteable little boy to an angry anxious mess. He started to display EBSA behaviours and its just been downhill for him since.
As soon as he reached Year 1 the mask slipped off and his school soon realised that his struggles were very real, there was no growing out of it. He just grew more and more into himself.
The suspensions started and so the battle began. I had to undertake several parenting courses whilst still having the finger pointed at myself. My parenting was to blame apparently.
After a lot of battling with all professionals we were referred to Early Help. They again referred me for even more parenting courses. We recieved a family support worker who worked with us for 12 week's she then withdrew because I had exhausted all options and advice. I was doing everything I could.
My son was then referred to the pediatrician where we were told it would be a 18 month plus wait. Then he would be under the pediatrician for a year before diagnosis and further referral to the Neurologist with a further waiting list of one year. In the meantime he would be referred to mental health services and hope for the best essentially.
My son has now reached Year 3, only just been accepted for an EHCP after reaching crisis point. His award wasnt high enough and school can not meet his needs or keep him safe so he is now doing 0840 to 1130 for the time being. In the meantime getting no education whatsoever as hes unable to cope in his classroom setting.
Hes not been getting an education really at all since he started Primary School. They have now told me that he needs a SEMH SEN school but told me to put his name on the waiting list as he could be waiting another 5 years before they find him a placement in a suitable setting. He had to sign a behavioural contract after suspension and they had to rewrite the entire thing to meet his needs.
The school have said they have exhausted all options and are now going back to the LA. My son has been awaiting assessment for pathway for 2 years now and weve only seen the Occupational Therapist who agreed my son needed some sessions but then discharged him.
Its a never ending battle and my son is suffering
