It is a conference that they are charging £15 for people with children or young adults to go, that is the gist of it. I think they are trying to get people explaining about the problems so they can find ways to help

He seems to be ok but I still have this gut feeling something is not right thanks for asking Magi I don't know about going though it could be worth it to get ideas dyscovery*btinternet.com has its own site about things like that

You know him better than anyone else Val, go with your gut instinct. Give him a hug for me. I want to go to the September one, (this is her who is NEVER going back to teaching...lol...) as I want to do another course in special needs this winter. M xXx
