[quote=Anonymous]OP with a disheartening update. I’m still exploring options and I contacted an education center that provides individualized tutoring for students with learning disabilities and ADHD. I had a good chat with the director and things were going well until I mentioned that DS has both autism and ADHD. I reassured her that he’s very high-functioning, no aggressive behaviors, and that it’s his ADHD that affects his education more but I could hear her tone change. She went from interested to condescendingly sweet. Now I don’t want to disclose his diagnosis at all in the admissions process if this is what it’s like even with a special-needs tutoring center. Autism feels like a scarlett letter and I can’t believe how ignorant educators are to the fact that it’s a broad spectrum.[/quote]
