Fourteen tears of schooling was unable to teach him much, so how does the Government think that someone sitting in an office can now rule him "fit for work" from a letter's details.

More to the point, where are the jobs nowadays and the promised help for disabled that are ruled fit to work?

If your son gets took off his benefits go to your MP as this really would be disgusting, he is entitled to these benefits but I'm sure you will be fine try and not worry. My thoughts are with you and many like you it just does not seem fair the worry these people cause.
