Hi everyone, my daughter who has recently turned 10 has some very negative feelings about herself - that she is a bad person, she is selfish, no-one likes her, she wants the world to go away and sometimes she says she wants to die. She?s previously had a referral for anxiety but actually didn?t score very highly on the tests. I think perhaps this is more of a self-esteem/depression issue. My heart breaks for her and she seems so young to be having these feelings. I?m really keen to get her some help, I?m thinking perhaps CBT, to help her feel more positive about herself. Please can anyone recommend anything or anyone that has helped their child in a similar situation? Thank you.

    • I know people won’t have any sympathy but the SEND challenge was brought up when taxing parents who have opted for independent school to meet a child’s SEND needs. Funding crisis is getting worse and the VAT on Education pushed children out of independent schools, now their SEND needs are to be met by the state.
    • I completely agree with you - and last night was really terrible where I am. Between midnight and 1am was the worst, where it genuinely felt like a war zone. I had to run out of my house to try and stop a grown man setting them off in open space right by our front doors. In response he went to throw a half lit one at me and then seemed to think better of it. I am so sad at how bad the situation has got here and how selfish people are. Fireworks are bad for the environment and for pets and wildlife, as well as just being unnecessary noise for people too. I have sent an email today to Helen Hayes, which I have done previously on this issue. Would advise anyone to write to your MP to do the same, and to ask them to engage with the debates scheduled for 19 Jan. 
    • And they started long before midnight!
    • First mate - I wondered if I was imagining things at 4.45 this morning . Apparently not .
