Julieann McGovern is part of a group of parents calling on the Government to provide more support for children with autism.
She recently stood outside Leinster House with a placard to put pressure on those in power. The distressed mother has watched her son Dylan deteriorate in front of her eyes due to a lack of vital support.
Julieann told Dublin Live that the eight-year-old is non-verbal and is unable to regulate his emotions.
