[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Could you observe him in his classroom? What does your gut tell you? My son had a host of issues at birth requiring therapy and then was diagnosed with severe ADHD in elementary school, so while I have always suspected he had HFA tendencies, it was never a priority for us to nail it down. I have paid for social skills groups, and his public school put him in a speech/social group for a year. However many of his social delays resolved when he was medicated for ADHD, and it is well-known that there is some overlap in symptoms between HFA and inattentive ADHD. It's great that the school has offered socialization therapy, it will help him even if he doesn't have HFA! [/quote] +1 - may not be HFA but that doesn't mean there is nothing going on. [/quote]
