Thank you very much AEH and Pemberley,

I'm a bit overwhelmed by all of this. DS does have high comprehension of math but struggles with "sloppy" mistakes. He also has a lot of writing issues including an inability to use pencils because of how they sound and feel.

He also struggles with passage comprehension, although he is otherwise a very advanced reader.

AEH - you have a lot of very helpful suggestions here. Thank you so much for taking the time to answer.

Pemberley, I do worry alot about the social aspects and some of the long term anecdotal information you talk about. It does help to hear from someone else on this.
