Hi, I'm new here too and I can't lend much expertise about your son's verbal skills, but it did strike me that you don't have much of a support system and you don't seem very happy about it. I would suggest trying things like meetup.com ... you can look for groups organized around your hobbies, stay...

I definitely see us moving towards an IEP. Right now his teacher has put in a place a number of accommodations and we're seeing what is working for him. She's been fabulous with him and very proactive in trying things to see what will work for him. He does seem a lot happier right now that he did a ...

So the IEP meeting was .. unremarkable. We've had a whole 2 days of detailed monitoring and so far he's responded well to that. Yesterday he had one tantrum when he wouldn't transition from math but today was 8 greens. His teacher did a pretty detailed write-up of his strengths and weaknesses in eac...

Thanks! That's a lot of really good information. I think I understand the language pragmatics thing now. I'd actually never really thought about it but I translate figures of speech, teasing, and so forth for my son. Though with certain people I think he's picking up when they're joking at least som...

Okay, if I'm interpreting things correctly, the ADOS is what the behaviorist would do. I know I can go through the school system however, based on my friend's experience, going the private route might get me further faster. And it will be nice to maybe get some answers about what's going on with him...

Thanks for your response. You're going to have to slow down on your jargon just a bit there, though. ;) I don't know what an ADOS at all or what occupational testing really means. Talking with my friend (son with epilepsy, been through the IEP process, etc), I was thinking about pushing for academic...

We're having our second "intervention" meeting on Thursday and I just had a meeting with his teac...
