[quote=Anonymous]Have you thought about starting a neighborhood playgroup with children who don't have HFA and being extra involved in his play the first few times? We've found our HFA child does not get along very well with other kids with HFA. Two or more socially awkward kids often doesn't lead to a great mix. We once set DS up on a playdate with a kid who has HFA and it was a no-go. Both of them only wanted to stick to their topic of interest and there was no overlap. Plus my kid has sensory issues and the other child was more physical and loud. My DS is not very flexible about rules while the other child was more advanced in this regard so it made playing games very difficult. They were both very polite to each other, but ended up playing in parallel for most of the two hours until the other mom came.[/quote]
