    Sorry to hear that you are struggling to get support for your son, it must be really worrying for you as a parent that at such an important point in his life he isn't receiving the help you feel he needs.

    Have the council given any reason as to why they haven't been able to provide as much support as you think they should? Has your son got a doctor or specialist who you are in regular contact with about his conditions? It might be worth getting in touch with them to request a supporting medical letter that will explain to the council why he needs extra help.
