[quote=Anonymous]We are a mainline Protestant family seeking a church that is welcoming to kids with special needs. We've visited churches in NoVA, and can't find a church suitable for our ADHD pre-teen with high-functioning autism, who has a lot of trouble sitting still and staying quiet. He has a poor social filter, and will make comments or ask questions when the expectation is to sit quietly. We would love to find a Sunday School program that he could participate in that runs at the same time as the main service, so he would not be expected to sit with us in the sanctuary. Our church used to have such a class, but it fizzled out as kids grew up and teachers moved on. I want to give DS a good spiritual foundation, but most of the churches that we've visited don't seem to know what to do with kids like him in a traditional Sunday school staffed by rotating volunteers. Any suggestions?[/quote]
