Not ignoring. Busy. There are many forms of disability, not all of them physical, not all of them visible. An SEN can be a disability in as much as it can be a barrier to access something such as education, social events and interacting with the community. To answer your question, a child with say a learning disability which is classed as having special education needs, may be capable of walking but may refuse to do so. They may choose to walk on tiptoes and/or backwards. Maybe the child has no fear or understanding of danger and could run into the road at anytime, despite having their hand held. There are many reasons why a child who has SEN may need to be driven to school besides the reasons of distance, going on to work etc that any parent may face. Could be that after struggling to get the child to co-operate with getting ready for school, eat breakfast or even leave the house the parent/carer is to exhausted to try and face the ordeal of walking.

Your rudeness and ignorance is breathtaking. LadyDeliah Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > So because their SEN, they can't walk?

How about an overnight at Chessington World of Adventure? Theme park closed but zoo & Sea Life open. Entrance included plus breakfast with Elves and a visit to Father Christmas with gift from ?119 for a family of four. Blooming bargain! http://holidayinnchessington.co.uk/christmas/christmas-2012.aspx

You could always hot foot it to the chippy of your choice, then carefully protecting your cherished portion of chips run as fast as you can back to yours, put the chips in a pre-heated oven to keep warm, sling some bacon under the grill, fry an egg or two, serve it all on a warm plate and tuck in! Mmmmmmmm!

As a driver and a pedestrian I wish drivers would use their indicators full stop. Some drivers do use them but leave it until after they have started to make the turn, no point then mate, I can see what you're doing now. You're supposed to indicate your intentions, not state the blooming obvious! And breathe!!

And you know this because ..............?

That's awful. Any possibility that some idiot may have a (real or perceived) grievance with you?

Could be wrong, but I think Josephine may have been referring to Owlwise's post as she (Josephine) wrote 'outside of giving a description'. Strawbs you gave an accurate description of what was a very upsetting and unsettling experience. I'm sorry that you have had such rotten luck and feel like you want to leave the area.

Put an extension on the back and we could have a Waitrose too!
