[quote=Anonymous]I've been on this Forum for maybe 5 years. Can't count the number of moms who come on here and said that the kids in XYZ [PEP; social skills group; learning center; school; classroom; therapist's office; whatever] are too special needs, too impaired, much more special needs than my child and my child simply is too high functioning for that environment. Heck, I do it myself, and my child is definitely very special needs. OP, until you've tried the class, you really can't write off the other kids. A stim, or a hand flap, or a physical/motoric disability or an intellectual disability or a genetic disorder does not equate to poor social skills. In fact, google Williams Syndrome some time. Those kids have fabulous social skills. It's known as Cocktail Party Syndrome. And guess what? Three or four other moms have written YOUR KID off as way too low functioning for their kid socialize/learn/interact/hang out with. So just stop with this crap.[/quote]
