Social skills classes for kids

I found the app for training social skills to be the most useful. It uses AI to provide customized feedback and is called The Cognity. They have a purple logo. I know their waitlist is currently open. My brother had the most amazing results.

Hello

It would be helpful for your son to learn how other neurotypes communicate but he should not learn social skills as this encourages masking:

Here is a link to a neuro affirming way that he learn about this:

Many thanks for the replies. Just wanted him to learn skills on how to start conversations, how to react to certain situations, etc. Don't really know exactly what I'm after for him but I’ve read about social skills classes, just nothing in my area.

Hello Scooter, these books may help:

Social Skills for Teenagers and Adults with Asperger Syndrome - A Practical Guide to Day-to-day Life - Nancy J., Ph.D. Patrick (2008)
ISBN 9781843108764

Social Skills Groups for Children And Adolescents With Asperger's Syndrome - A Step-by-step Program - Kim Kiker Painter (2008)
ISBN 1843108216

They will be easy to pick up and put down as and when he has capacity for it, will be there to refer back to and avoid the social issues of actually attending a class.

If there is such thing as a social skills class then sign me up! Although how socialize-y are you wanting? If you try to push him too hard with certain social expectations (like eye contact for example) it could become very draining and cause meltdowns or shutdowns
