Inclusive Education for All Special Needs Singaporeans
There is a need for all Singaporeans to be educated, under a common core education to prepare for a knowledge-based economy, as well as having a common educational experience to build forging national identity and cohesion. (Ministry of...
Earlier today I had to hand in a copy of my diagnosis to social services, so they can look if they can give me support. Which I don't mind at all, I'm not that much of a rebel, lol.
However; looking at it, a few points came to mind. And it made me wonder a bit about cause and effect, and what...
With a chance of getting the advice like "making a thread will get more people to respond" I'll keep headstrong and try the blog first ;)
Quite often I ramble about employment, education, social services and how that all ties in (or depending what your stance is "messes") with autism in the...
And for anyone not familiar with latin, history and/or philosophy... it roughly translates to; "Who will guard the guards themselves?"... or of course a more popculture related reference "Who watches the watchmen?".
With that quote in mind I'm beginning to think that that bit of "paranoia"...
For everyone who doesn't want to read, but likes pictures... this is a short summary
Earlier today it got me thinking...
Can the ability to cope with things be different for people with autism?
I wonder because the last few years I'm stumbling upon a lot of situations that are more...
I'd like to put up a disclaimer up front. The following might be a bit trigger-inducing for the ones prone to it. Still, I'll put some stuff up in spoilers, but at least, be warned.
As a kid, when I was about 8 years old, my parents decided to put me in an after school daycare thing ran by...
So, apparently I like to ramble a bit about employment and such, and this is no different.
A few thoughts resonate in my mind for the last few weeks. And some stuff actually was stuff I read on this forum. It wasn't a problem as such, that I felt miserable for it... to me it's data, to help...
So... I went to see my therapist today as she told me she'd have results in by january 18th.
I had no idea what to expect... well, to me it could be anything. I kinda expected her to pull the PDD-NOS thing on me. It always felt kinda "easy" to put such a label on someone.
Anyway; the...
In my last blog I wrote a bit about a letter I got from the employment agency and how their specialist deemed me "fit for any job". I also wrote I filed a complaint because I, as well as my own therapist (as opposed to their therapist) thinks I rather have to sort my stuff out before I end up in...
So, earlier today I got a letter from the employment office. And according to their therapist, where they've sent me to last May I'm healthy and able to work.
However, if I didn't agree, I could send them an appeal, where I stated a decent motivation why I disagree. Thus... I did. Now...
I could start a rant... in a thread. I believe I ranted enough today. Not on the board though. I don't have intention to mess up the entire board... but, I ranted today against;
My former therapist.
Last week I went there, and he pretty much, among other therapists, told me "sorry man, I...
