[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again.
Actually it is the opposite, he is much worse with adults. But adults are more understanding. He does have friends and plays a lot and is social, but he will often get frozen and not say hi to somebody.
Anyway, we'll keep working. I just got quite upset yesterday because the mom of a very nice friend who we have not seen for a few months (ins spite of me trying) told me it was because her son (whom she admits is a bit oversensitive) got extremely upset after we met last times. I had no idea.
If I tell my son X got upset because Y, he looks at me like I am talking a foreign language. So I was looking for different words, stories, etc. But possibly there is nothing different I can do. I don't know.[/quote]

Since it was a one time event with one kid, I wouldn't worry about it.

I have an HFA/ADHD 7 yr old and ignoring people is still common even when I nag him about being polite.  DS isn't ignoring them on purpose so it's hard to correct something you do not realize you are doing.

Does your child's friends and/or their parents know about the ASD?  If they know, the parent can explain the situation and tell their child that your son isn't being rude on purpose.[/quote]
