I'm sorry to hear things have been so hard fo you and Shane.

I also have a 7 year old (dx with high functioning autism) who is a brilliant reader but struggles socially. 

If you want we can brainstorm a few ideas? I used to work with autistic children.

Re: 7 y.old boys

I know with the research i have done....aspergers is now recognised as its own syndrome and no longer part of autism. In the transition period, it was known as high functioning autism but is now known (even by centrelink & government authorities) as aspergers. It was frustrating me alot when doing research and who to contact as autism is alot different than aspergers and has many different symptoms. Researching Autism and researching Aspergers is two totally different things as people will find out.
