[quote=Anonymous]12:01 makes a great point about teachers' being punitive for things that are just part of having ASD like stims. Our mainstream preschool was very understanding about this and DS never had any issues. In MCPS K there was a color chart for behavior that was posted on the wall. All the other kids got the "good" colors like Blue and Green while DC was constantly on the "bad" Orange and Red for things like getting up, making noises, spinning when he was supposed to be sitting. DS began to hate school and hate himself. I was shocked that a 6-year-old could become clinically depressed but that's what our doctor told us was happening.[/quote]
