lbj Report post Posted September 29, 2008 My little boy who turned three in June has speech delay and is to be formally assessed for an ASD in November. He's lovely and bright and well-behaved but (delightfully) odd and as I've said, not much of a talker (or a pointer, or a greeter - things which I've learned are significant!). I'm very pleased to say that we've just about cracked potty training before he starts nursery. I do worry about him fitting in (it's mainstream) and also about the level of one on one support he'll be allocated because he's likely to just drift off on his own if he's not chivvied along a bit. It's nice to be here amongst people who understand these sort of concerns and who can give us support if any problems do arise (fingers crossed that they don't) Hello forum! lbj Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NickyB Report post Posted September 29, 2008 Hello, lbj and welcome I have a 5 year old boy who was dx with high-functioning autism last year. Both nursery and school have been fantastic with him - I hope you find the same. I love your phrase 'delightfully odd' - sums it up brilliantly Nicky Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
