    When we told my MIL about this .. her first response was " how about the social life ? "

    Seems like majority of people concern about this part , friends and families always come up first with that question , how about friends ?

    I told them that we have groups that meet once a day just to hang out and play , so he can learn his social skills and also there are other extra activities that we do , so he gets to learn new things and hang out with friends all ages .
