[quote=Anonymous]I tell if they ask. For instance when we were signing him up for Jewish/Hebrew school, the form asked if the child has an 504/IEP. Same for Capitol Cotillion. At school, DS has an IEP and all his teachers are on the IEP team so they already know about DS's issues. For coaches, I don't tell but he is not involved in group sports so it's a non issue. DS's BFF's family knows the diagnosis but his best friend is also on the spectrum. FYI, the current world champion in chess, Magnus Carlsen, who also happens to be the youngest world chess champion ever has had rumors of Asperger's following him through his career. His father basically answers these rumors by saying that Magnus has never been formally evaluated for ASD.[/quote]
