Hi Rachel - hope you're doing well. I tried to post under your thread re home education, but keep coming up with an error at every attempt to post. Just wanted to let you know that I home educate and have written a few pieces on my site, including one for Autism Today for a radio interview. If you're interested you'll find the link in my profile. To view the Education section(along with others) does require registration, but please feel free to view all information without pressure to post. The items there contain quite a bit of information along with some highly recommended links, books etc and well and truly address the 'socialisation' issue. A further quite lengthy piece on home ed is being posted there on Thursday of this week. Best Wishes!
