Stop it RIGHT now. That is not true. My daughter went to WPI. She is neurotypical (my youngest is AUD/ADHD) and there were a lot of students very similar to OP’s child. And they had over 200 clubs and ones like gaming, Legos, d&d, board games, trivia, etc…  My daughter went to a local private and was very good at talking and writing songs would have group projects in college and boys similar to OP’s would do the programming and she would write the paper and present. And a lot of students now more mature appreciated each other in that environment.

He is better off at a small academic focused school. If he’s in to sciences and computers, many of the students are similar.

OP look for good colleges. I think middle and high school are harder than college so don’t let this comment weigh you down.

For now, you can also look into meetups with gaming or find high school clubs. And there is a place in DC that has movie and gaming nights for kids on the spectrum. It isn’t sitting around and talking/therapy. Just straight up social events. [/quote]
