Having spent my career working with kids on the spectrum, just from these clips alone he is not Level 3.  I have looked at their other clips with him from when they adopted him to the most recent and I don't see him digressing either.  Many kids can see fine until they are 1 or 2 and then begin a progression into more severe behaviors like losing eye contact or gaining repetitive/restrictive behaviors. Even when disciplining him he makes very good eye contact.  While non verbal he can clearly communicate.

He is clearly a kid who is special needs but definitely not in the "severe" category from from all kids I have worked with.  That said, THEY are not a good fit for him so it is best that he be taken away from them -- which is most likely what the professionals made happen.  If you have a family unwilling to help a child (and it is a ton of work) then the one who suffers is the child.  He deserves a bright future which this family was not going to provide for him.[/quote]

It's good to hear a pro chime in on this.  I agree that it is good that this boy is being placed elsewhere.  These people never should have gotten him in the first place. [/quote]
