[quote=Anonymous]For heaven's sake. There are kids with mild ASD in every mainstream school in the country, and adults with mild ASD in every workplace. And my Aspie DS is not going to shoot up your school. He's much more likely to end up tutoring your kid in math. I can't believe we're having this conversation in 2015, and on this board of all places. And it's particularly strange when we're talking about a school that specializes in ADHD--which shares an awful lot of the emotional traits characteristic of high functioning autism. Indeed, the things that make HFA kids potentially disruptive in a school environment probably have more to do with their ADHD (which essentially all of them have) than with the additional social challenges layered on by the autism. We are not at Commonwealth but we know some parents there, and when we talk about our kids we find tons of commonalities.[/quote]
