NJ Mom.....I can't thank you enough for your post. It was so helpful to read and I really agree with everything you said. I was hoping someone may have been in this situation with their own child and your experience is so helpful to hear about.
In my gut, I know there is nothing wrong, from a disability standpoint, with my son. I do think these folks are well meaning, but he is just fine.
Kriston, your suggestion about finding some MG kids to hang with is a good one. I need to put my head to how best to make that happen. I think you are right though...a little bit older and bright would be a good match for him.
Chris, I am sure you're right about the aging up thing. And yes, it's not making friends so much as choosing to play with children on the playground rather than hang out on the bench with the teacher. he's not a big outdoor kid to begin with and he'd rather sit on the bench and give his teacher story problems.
Thanks to all for the input. It helps alot.
