[QUOTE="--Eleanor--, post: 43310, member: 3620"] This is great information--thanks, everyone! We are meeting with a psychologist and the school district autism coordinator today to talk about trying to coordinate behavioral supports between home and school. (Translation: They want us to use their system for the sake of consistency. Of course, their system is what is producing the worst behavior I've ever seen, while ours seems to be working pretty well. But we'll try it their way anyway--at least for a while.) Marguerite--thanks so much for all of the information. It really helps to hear from someone else who has experienced hyperlexia firsthand. Most of the school personnel had never even heard of it. We're thinking seriously about switching to homeschooling--there are no suitable private schools nearby. And sameold sameold--We constantly have to deal with people who assume that my son is just spoiled or bratty because he obviously is so smart. They act like his autism diagnosis is something we just made up to excuse bad behavior, because he is verbal and social (and doesn't act like Rainman). Crossed fingers, hoping for a better school week this week! --Eleanor-- [/QUOTE]
