I am really quiet about both the gifted part and the autism part of DS unless someone asks or comments. Sometimes, I feel like I have to explain a behavior, but often I do not...it depends on the mom. Like other posters, he "outs" himself frequently.
What is going on right now, is that moms are asking, "What are you doing for the summer?" I will sometimes say vaguely, "Oh, a couple of summer camps." And other times I will say, "Can you believe he DEMANDED we send him to a math camp??" And with close people I will moan about the difficulty of finding a place to keep him challenged and interested all summer long!
Other moms are definitely challenging for me ha ha
