[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 744052, member: 1550"] i disagree with your coach. All spectrum kids are different. Social awkwardness and problems communicating are very significant Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) issues. They present as unusual. Some do well in school and dont misbehave. My son is kind and caring and probably more social than your son...your son may be high functioning enough to figure things out without help, but if it were my kid I would take him to a neuro psychologist (a paychologist with extra training in the brain) to get him assessed. It is up to you. My son did really well with interventions. He is still "different" but not in a bad way. He definitely is fine without a bunch of friends and really shuns large groups of people. They are all different. I dont think of autism as a bad thing. Most autistics I have met are lovebugs! :) They tend to improve with age, but are still a bit different. There are different levels of autism. Some need more assistance than others. I am in the better to be safe than sorry camp. [/QUOTE]
