[QUOTE="BemLmum3, post: 294269"] Thanks for the reply MW. I agree that difficult child 1 may be an Aspie but it is not priority right now for me to seek out that diagnosis. I will look into the nuerophsyc, but honestly the main benefit I see from him having another label would be for services through school. He did start out in PS and I pulled him after 3months. He did not have diagnosis at that time, but the school system here where we live is not a good fit for him. We plan on homeschooling for the duration but I really do not know for sure what the future holds, so maybe it is a good idea to seek correct diagnosis? Just in case he does have to return to PS. I realize he needs help with his social skills and he gets many opportunities to practice them. We are very involved with our homeschool group and the kids always get an ample amt of time to socialize at every function. That and I make sure we go to park and play days to specifically work on the social skills, he needs that more than anything. Since he is so in tune to his body and what his "triggers" are, I thought there might be more I could do in practicing with him? We have practiced from what to do and say when you meet someone new, to personal space. Social skills class would be good, maybe I can find a resonable one that he could do, even through private agencies. Or maybe we can still get services here in Texas through school district while we are homeschooling, I will have to check it out. [/QUOTE]
