Hello and welcome to the forum. What sort of suggestions are you looking for?Hi there, My 5-year-old kid recently diagnosed as autistic classic with diabetic type -1 (looking for some suggestions)
Yes. Better be careful when taking an autistic kid to an unknown place full of noisy unknown kids and performance pressures. I don't have any bad experience myself (that I remember - outside school work presentation in front of a class), but I have read enough horror stories about perfectly social, happy and balanced autistic children ending up to a catatonic perma-mute state after their first school day... I take he/she is in kindergarten, how he/she has managed that?Homeschooling. Definitely homeschooling. No, joke.
