56. This sounds just like my
Edited on Mon Dec-20-04 12:05 PM by FlaGranny
grandson. He is in the process of being evaluated this school year. He had a lot of difficulty with speech at first, but he's extremely bright. A solid straight A student, reading several grade levels above his classmates This year he hit a wall, though. The classroom has become "structured" because the students are studying for the "tests" this year and he is not adapting to that. He refuses to do make-work things, also. I hate seeing his intelligence being stifled by "teaching to the test." His teacher hates it too. His parents believe he has Asperger's after their extensive research on it. I hope that if his school confirms he has this that they are as enlightened as your son's teachers and school.
