I mind a child with some real behavioural problems. With Dad's permission I have discussed this with his teachers and have decided that in September we will put together a CAF (common assessment framework) for him. However his Dad took him to his doctors last week to discuss his behaviour as it really is getting worse and the doctor suggested a CAM. However I don't know what this is. Can anyone enlighten me please. Thanks again.xx

Never heard of it but this is what google gave me

thank you thats interesting. everyone is so kind on here. I'd like to add that I really admire the letter you wrote on here. Many times I thought I'd be childless, but it all seems to work out in the end, tho its not always easy.xxx

I think they might mean camhs, mental health services for children if they have emotional problems.

I think they mean camhs as well Julie.
