Hi
We are currently undergoing assessment for our 4 (nearly 5) year old son but they keep saying as he is so young could just be developmental delays.
But as you probably all went through at time of assessment researching has left us in no doubt that he is on the spectrum.
My only doubt is the way he can control himself in school. He has just started full time and does not display any of the violence, stuborness etc that we have at home and with grandparents/friends. He thrives on the routine of school. He only has one friend and just tends to go into a trance at free time or follow other children around. School do not see it which makes the assessment process harder he is really bright so they are quite happy academically. He is quite and well behaved (this is out of character for him as he is not quite he only goes like this when is unsure of a situation). We seem to get the horrible behaviour/akwardness twice as harsh when he gets home and on a weekend.
Although I struggle with homework as he will only do the bits he understands and likes and wont entertain the parts doent want to do. (Sorry rambling).
So my question is can some children control ASD to a certain extent in certain settings??
Thanks
Lisa
