Mishaps at work, mayhem at home...

It''ll get easier when he starts school... That''s what Lucy was told, and she believed it. But now that her autistic son Stanley has joined Reception, his obsession with Africa and daily screaming fits at the school gates haven''t exactly won him or Lucy any popularity contests.
