[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 98341, member: 1233"] Please take this post and copy it onto the Special Education forum. They are not being honest with you. They have a duty to do what your child needs to learn. If they cannot provide this, they have to pay for him to go somewhere that can help him. There are ways to set things into place. I can say that one of my daughter's friends has had years of selective mutism. This started before we moved here and still exist, iwth a few notable times she has spoken. She communicated very well. She is very bright. Jess and she hit it off in 1st grade. I had both girls with me on many field trips, with others and without. I actually spent 2 field trips with just the 2 girls before I realized she did not speak or make any noises. I do not know what causes the mutism. or how to help other than simply not to pressure. Have you considered seeing a developmental pediatrician? I found ours was extremely knowledgeable on many issues, not jsut autism. He helped us more with my difficult child's anxiety than any other doctor ever has. Hugs, Susie [/QUOTE]
