[quote=Anonymous]Autistic people, like all people, span all IQs. And even if he is gifted -- which you just don't know -- that isn't at all the same as high achieving academically. Anxiety, executive dysfunction, and inflexibility often accompany autism and can make school success really difficult. Please love the child you have, accept him for his strengths and challenges, and don't assume anything about the future.[/quote]
