Mum of autistic children in court over holiday
A mother of autistic children found herself in court after a dispute over a holiday with her family. The mother, who cannot be named for legal reasons, had booked a vacation for her children during the school break. However, she encountered difficulties when trying to make arrangements for her autistic children.
The mother explained to the court that she had tried to find a suitable holiday destination that would cater to the needs of her children, who require special care and support. Despite her efforts, the travel company she had booked with was unable to provide the necessary accommodations for her children.
The situation escalated when the travel company refused to refund the mother’s booking, leading her to take legal action against them. The case has since been brought before a judge, who will make a decision on the matter in the coming weeks.
It is a reminder of the challenges that families with special needs children face when trying to enjoy a holiday. Hopefully, a resolution can be reached that is in the best interest of the children and their mother.
