[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. One point of clarification. The reason the therapist said it would be atypical is because he makes eye contact. She knows him well and has HFA as a speciality but just raised the possibility recently. [/quote] It probably won't mean very much in terms of skill building. For example, kids with language processing issues, ASD, or ADHD can benefit from social skill groups. Diagnoses can vary, but all end up with the same need, i.e., weakness in social communication. Did your therapist think he was in need of more testing or was just floating the issue past you? What was the point of raising the issue?[/quote]
