[QUOTE="allhaileris, post: 544103, member: 5663"] I'd say something, but I'm totally socially inappropriate about these things. If they LOVE their child, they'll do something about it. I agree talking to your nephew would be good, but don't expect it to come out of his mouth to his parents the same way you told him. It'll get mixed up, and it will come out. But little things can be said to him every time you see him. I'd call your brother in law on the clothes packing thing if nothing else. I would have done it right there and then. It's not okay in the slightest to send your child off unprepared. I totally love to let my child do for herself and learn to "get it" in life, but I still have to check her ALL the time, and praise her when she does it right, correct her when she doesn't. Your brother in law and sister in law are being BAD parents by not sending their child prepared. And screw the whole appropriateness of denial cr*p. They're family. Flat out tell them that you think their kid has Aspergers or Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) or whatever. They've probably been told it before, and probably have it nagging at them behind their denial. Tell all of your family members that their kid has it and get eveybody on board. All denial does is hurt the child. Be a big momma bear and stick up for your nephew, even if it causes waves for a while. You'd be doing your nephew a favor. [/QUOTE]
