I've already gone through six schools (2 first schools, 3 special schools, 1 home-tutoring, 1 autism school and 2 tuition sessions a week.) Social services are right bellends, the rest bite carers follow me around fucking everywhere and want me to do chores like washing their cars, collecting sand from the beach, printing photos of buses (sadly Tommy's Photos Copyright Act 2014 prohibits that!), printing photos of me out so they can put it on the wall etc. (also photos of my face is prohibited unless on a bus, train or Metro) all to EARN a trip to York. Fucking bellends.
I would have set all my schools on fire if I had a chance.
I went through placements of a different kind, I was in Care as a kid between 1995 and 2001, I moved a total of 15 times and at least 12 of those moves came between 1995 and 1998, I have been in a total of 6 Childrens Homes and 1 Foster Placement...My Bus Enthusiasm become more of a thing for me when I was in Care, at one point they gave me an explorer ticket every Saturday, I went all over the place from Berwick to Scarborough across to places like Barnard Castle and down to Ripon, as I like my own company, some of those were the best days of my teenage years
Sounds like you have been through it as well mate, my experience of Social Services has been relatively good, I had a very love/hate relationship with them in the late 90's, I did work for them and the education department at the time and helped them with some of there policies. I loved my social worker and her boss, but hated the people high up in County Hall, I was part of a group that called Social Services out when we needed to and fought various authorities if it was needed, I fought for people like you and one of my best friends in the group had learning disabilities and think he was probably autistic, he would annoy the shit out of me, because he knew exactly what buttons to push, lol...
I think the department would have been happy when our little group lost it's funding in 2010, as other organisations had known to entice some of our users to them by offering cash rewards to goto them and help them to undertake the work we were trying to do...bastards...
Keep ya chin up mate, it is not as bad as you think it may be, it could be a lot worse pal...
As fot my former deputy head at school, he was an absolute cumstain, I hated him, I heard a while back when he left teaching he became a Vicar, I wont say much more about him, he apparantly died a few years ago, so I will leave it at that
