an incident in school.
my
12 year old, who has high functioning Autism, was provoked with
pinching and name calling on Friday to a point where he struck another
student. the other student was his best friend. They have an on and
off relationship. my son knows it isn't right for people to fight like
that. He also knows that name calling isn't right. our school has a
new principal, so I am hoping to make sure that he understands that
while my son deserves a punishment, they need to take somethings into
consideration. People with Autism don't have the best social skills.
wish me luck. My son rarely hits anyone. he would have to be seriously
pissed off before that would happen.
met with the school principal. He seemed to be afraid of me. not sure why, never had to meet with him before. My son ended up with a half hour of after school detention. So he won't miss any school, and he won't be "rewarded" with staying home from school.
