I'm leaving a lot of these more general entries about going through the processes with an SEN child unlocked. Someone else might run across them and find them useful

"You're in denial" can so be used as a "I don't want to listen to your actual experience when you disagree with me" - and I don't like it when people do that. Telling someone they're in denial is rarely a helpful intervention, and never is if it doesn't take into account the person's experience.

Go you for being clear.

Thank you. Getting a nice clear verbal stance in my head always helps me to sort things out psychologically.

It's about the narrative, I guess.

Thank you. I'm acutely aware that I have a National Health Service at my disposal. Really, I don't know how people cope with this.
