I really don't understand the reading restriction at all. Just give him the books he wants to read and allow him to take them to school to read during 'reading time'.

I have never obsessed over 'reading level' as I believe once you have cracked the code and learned to read that you are only limited by your access to text and your curiosity. Reading level is a BS term as far as I am concerned. If my DD wants to read something that isn't pornographic or excessively violent/drug encouraging/glorifying suicide or self harm etc I let her and why wouldn't I?

Not even wanting to help just doesn't sound like DYS - who is your family consultant? We did not need the help at the time that my DD was skipped but our consultant was almost pugnaciously keen and very ready to step in for us - her having our backs like that was very supportive.
