[QUOTE="JLady, post: 258460, member: 6439"] I just had a 45 minute conversation with the minister. Among many things I informed him that we are not dealing with a "situation" but rather a child of God who needs Godly people to help direct him. I said many, many things.... I told the minister not to take it personally. That defiance is what most people assume is the issue with him but that isn't the case at all. He simply doesn't know how to interact with others. I can't say I'm happy with the conversation but I think we both know where we are coming from. I do not expect this person to be a lot of assistance in the development of my son. There are other people at the church that ARE supportive and they don't even know the situation. I have to keep it all in perspective and not let one person have such a dramatic affect on me. As many of you have said, we are all human even in the church. I'm still quit upset and have decided that it will probably be best if I find another social outlet for my youngest child. I will still allow him to participate at church but I will also be looking for something better. There is a community group in our area that works with Autism spectrum children and parents. Perhaps their activities will be more beneficial for my son. Thank you for the support and understanding. [/QUOTE]
