Wow, lots to respond to here since last I looked. As far as Martial Arts and teaching style, I've lived with this kid for almost 10 years now and I'm pretty confident I know what type of teaching style works well for him. Authoritarian and/or robotic does not really. He likes rules, and does best in...

yourkiddingme3- We may look into Martial Arts again in the future. At the time he was very down on himself to the point he was hurting himself for things he thought he was not good at or 'messing up' and his MA class fell into the category of stuff he was too hard on himself about. He felt he was no...

I don't want to do that because I think it would weaken the lesson. To be sure, the kid who took them is w...

Thanks for the replies. I searched through some older posts here and found that it's not an uncommon thing. I think I went through a similar thing myself and then turned around and became super skeptical as a result. Maybe he will go that way too. I did talk to his social skills teacher about it and...

Hey there! My son is almost 10 and was diagnosed with HFA when he was 8. We've had an issue lately with other kids conning him. This year they are not allowed to use their ipods/devices on the playground or at lunch, which is what he'd do in previous years. I thought this was good as he'd get some p...
