(And I don't want to suggest here that the Russian people aren't kind to children - they most certainly are - more that those who don't 'fit' are not given many options.

Here in Ankara we have several little centres specifically for autism therapy where our son has one to one and group classes to address different needs. He goes there a few times a week and attends the French school the rest of the time. But also, other children and adults here are generally very accepting of difference and will act very naturally with our son, talk to him, include him. I don't know if that's a general Turkish attitude or if we've just lucky. I suspect Turkish people are kind to children whatever their abilities.Sandrinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10229404784641370601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5175562867822111389.post-39185513093258580082010-04-28T22:32:40.360+01:002010-04-28T22:32:40.360+01:00Sister3 thanks for visiting and commenting, and wh...Sister3 thanks for visiting and commenting, and whilst a trip to Ankara is sadly not on the cards right now sadly, I would love to know how such a situation is handled in Turkey.Potty Mummyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04751869800592294891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5175562867822111389.post-62558620529562713162010-04-28T22:28:10.553+01:002010-04-28T22:28:10.553+01:00BW, thanks and glad you liked it.
