[quote=Anonymous]The problem with not telling a kid about their ASD diagnosis is that they might eventually become a high school senior who wants to apply to colleges far away from their supportive parents who scaffold for them. At that point, how do you explain to them that it's not a good idea to apply to school across the country that doesn't offer a strong resources for kids who need accommodations? It's really easy for kids like this to grow up not realizing that they're ND and that without their family supports they'd struggle. [/quote]
