[QUOTE="buddy, post: 479467, member: 12886"] does he see a speech/language therapist? The areas seen by a speech language therapist in schools include: speech/articulation, language (syntax/grammar, understanding language, putting together/formulating language, processing sounds and words/language, vocabulary etc. and the last area that is assessed and worked on is called Pragmatic Language. That is social use of language. Having Asperger's means there is a presumption of social communication issues and a speech lang. pathologist would be needed as a related service provider in order to help support your son in the general education environment. If this is an area of need it should be in the IEP. Do you feel that would benefit your son (often times there are social communication groups etc.) Maybe you already do/have done this so just throwing it out there. Play therapy and talk therapy dont work well for my son either. He is getting better at the talking thing but not in a way that you could expect him to sit and do it in a scheduled session. It comes out in bits and pieces as he goes about his day. Makes things much trickier when you want to help them with thoughts and feelings, huh? [/QUOTE]
