[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 188418, member: 1550"] Some Aspies make good eye contact, some don't. Some make good eye contact with people they know, but can't look strangers in the eyes (common). There is no such thing as an Aspie trait that all Aspies have other than trouble with social cues and a certain "cluelessness" about life. in my opinion you really need to take a hard look at spectrum disorder. He has a lot of the traits. I doubt he'd go inside somebody's house when they weren't home if he didn't have it--that's just too "out there." At any rate, hope you get the help you're looking for (and really need). Aspergers should NOT fall through the cracks. My son was higher functnioning than yours (not trying to compare "My kid is better than yours" lol) but he NEVER would have gone into somebody's house or taken anything--he knew better--his "awareness" level was high for somebody with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). And my son STILL got tons of interventions at school, and he has done 80% better because of those interventions. You have to fight and not allow the school to let him fall through the cracks. Hate to tell you this, but it's all up to you. The school will definitely do it their easy way if you let them get away with it. Your son DESPERATLY needs life skills and social skills interventions and maybe academic supports too. You do NOT want him to stay as socially clueless as he is and do things like again. Good luck :) [/QUOTE]
