[quote=Anonymous]I have a son, 7, with ASD/ADHD and he has friends even a best friend. Does you son have an IEP/504? My son has to be taught social cues and "how to be a friend" explicitly like how he is taught math. Our public school and his teachers have been teaching him since prek4 when he entered school and got his diagnosis. There are lots of things the school can do to help with social issues. In fact, all of my son's IEP goals involve social communication not academics (where he has no issues). You can have one-on-one play dates as has been suggested but your son with be best served with direct social instruction. Does your school have a school counselor? At our school, the counselor runs social skills classes as well as the SLP.[/quote]
