[quote=Anonymous]My son is doing pretty well as a freshman at a mid-level regional state university. He does use his accommodations of 50% extra time and written lecture notes occasionally. Socially, it is tough. I could always manufacture social opportunities for him -- mostly through sports, group vacations, lots of family friends with kids, etc -- while he was living at home. He continues to have a number of "acquaintances," and he blends in pretty well. But he has never had a close friend, and he has never dated. I really don't think that will change much as he grows older. If anything, it will probably solidify. But, he plays on a club sports team in college, has a nice roommate, plays on some intramural teams, and talks about certain people in his classes. I suppose as long as he is productive and healthy and somewhat content with life, we will call it a win.[/quote]
