then it's a really lousy group. [/quote]

Why?  It has 7 kids who need to learn to interact with their peers/classmates.  DS even has a best friend from the group:)

We've been very happy with it.  Free, no driving, and DS has improved a lot:  About as good as it gets for a social skills group...[/quote]

Because they should be working on individual needs, which is what an IEP requires, even in a group setting.

And a MERLD child's language needs are usually quite different than a child with ASD.[/quote]

Yes, but this is at a language immersion school - not a school a parent would pick if they thought their child had issues with language.  I actually know most of the diagnosis for the kids in that social skills class (from their parents) and none of them have MERLD although some also have one-on-one speech classes not just group social pragmatics.

Most MERLD kids get one-to-one speech classes not just group, correct?  I would think an individual speech class would to tailored to the kid's needs no matter what the diagnosis...[/quote]
