I’ve just read One in 14 children (or rather their parents) are currently claiming DLA for ADHD or autism.

Surely we cannot afford this madness for much longer?

It’s not just the children the parents all have ADHD/Autism now!
My brow lady told me how she has just been diagnosed, she’s 50!
It is worth too much in benefits sadly.

What? Beggars belief. Yesterday I was talking to a primary school head teacher who was telling me that she is regularly kicked, punched, spat at and called names because a kid cannot get their own way. The parents are largely the issue as they ask "What was the crisis/trigger point?”
