[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] DS really has to be seen in a classroom setting for his issues to be apparent. He engages very well with adults even strangers he has just met: Downright charming. He is not shy at all and has no signs of anxiety. This is probably the main reason that adult led therapy has been useless. DS PREFERS adults and given a choice will always "hang" with the grownups.[/quote] Sorry to thread-jack but 9:26, how did your DS do at the ADOS? Our DS is very similar (but with no repetitive behaviors or restricted interests) in that he prefers adults or younger kids than his classroom peers. At the ADOS, he just decided that the evaluators were his "friends" and he just played with them like he does with us at home. Hence the evaluation did not find him on the spectrum. His current social skills class is also largely useless for the largely the same reason. [/quote]
