ASD may be a red herring because the sort of cues needed for non-verbal communication rely on complex visual field information. My son's specific diagnosis was ambylopia, which is a more common problem with those sort of issues. He had a year of patching for two hours a day, and it still took a year after that before he could something like find a pair of socks on the floor (basically the brain catching up on five years of missed development.)

p.s. DS8 is working five plus years ahead in math, and three plus years ahead in language arts. We're looking at another go with the SB5 later this year.
