[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My non sn daughter is also in k - my son is older - and I’m frankly surprised your daughter has picked up on this. There are several kids with iep in my kids class - I volunteer often - and they just aren’t aware yet. [/quote]

Kids pick up on everything. My 4yr old knows who in his preschool class has allergies and to what, who doesn’t like loud noises and bright lights, who flaps their hands when upset. He doesn’t know if it’s a disability or really have language to discuss it - but he does include these details when he describes peers and things that are part of his day. He also knows who gets pulled out in the afternoon and why - some kids have ballet or piano and others have speech therapy. Kids talk among themselves. [/quote]

No  they really don't... you are being overly dramatic.  They may start to notice differences but usually it is from what they hear from adults.  OP is looking for a reaction- read the posts and even the subject line to include her NT child. She has no idea how offensive she is, especially on a SN board where some of us have to deal with real issues.  If she wants to help, invite the kids to the birthday parties, invite them over to play, be nice to the parents, etc.  You don't teach your kid to diagnosis other kids and email their parents demanding their medical and personal information.[/quote]
