[quote=Anonymous]The main difference is: typical kids do not need to take extracurriculars (it's parents' choice to load them with activities). SN kids NEED therapies and other appointments (it's not optional). When I take my SN kid to an extracurricular activity, it's a full hour of mental exhaustion to watch DC with peers (is DC going to follow direction, respond to peers, not being aggressive, not biting nails, not wandering, not having potty accident, etc), while other parents are relaxed, chatting or looking at their iPhones.
