My son is very like the boy in 'the meeting' and while I didn't listen to the Mindwebs recording I did look the story up and read it online and do not regret it. It is a great reminder of how much attitudes have changed in the last 40 years to kids like that.

I'm betting that story will end with the father telling the doctor 'No' as he's been shown the light at the end of the tunnel for his boy as he is, even if it is very faint and flickering. If you've managed to parent a kid with those sorts of problems to that age without breaking down or splitting up then you've developed a core of steel and a fierce sense of protection for your offspring.
