Hi sorry totally off topic but I can't pm you. My DS is 6 and the teachers have said that he often just plays with himself in the playground (not like that you rude girls). I had questioned him about it but he said taht he jsut wanted to play his game and the others didn't and he didn't seem taht bothered about it. But now you have got me worried that he may have AspergersHome again now! That little girl is HORRIBLE. She has a friend who she completely dominates, and wont allow to play with anyone else. My little girl was trying to run around with a group of them who were all just running around in circles, and Horrible Child saw her, stopped, turned round to her and went "YOURE NOT PLAYING".
I fear that this is what I can expect for the future for her though. Shes being referred to the paediatrician (my daughter, not horrible child) under the "suspected social communication difficulties" heading. I have been here before with my son, who was diagnosed with Aspergers aged 6, and it is heartbreaking when you pass the playground at lunch or playtime and see your child being the one who is wandering alone round the edge of the playground because no-one wants to play with them...

MLM.. I do understand how you must feel, my daughter was diagnosed with Fanconi Syndrome, which entailed whilst undergoing so many tests in gt Ormand Street, developmental delay and lacked social and physical skills. Started off in a special needs nursery, walked with the aid of a frame til the age of 5.. then went onto primary with SEN support teacher 5 hours a day, then onto Secondary school.. all this time she was different, looked different and acted different. but she made friends and what really helped was talking to a teacher (whilst in every school) and asking for someone to buddy up with her.. This worked and although she didn't have lots of friends or was any good at sports, she got through school, and onto college too. She has her difficulties but she works twice as hard to get through them and she astounds me now with what she has achieved. I was told by Doc's that she wouldnt be able to live independently, well.. she does and she has.. so do get the Head of the school to get someone to buddy her, if really does work.
I work with challenging teens and some of those Young People have aspergers and ADHD, its a difference but I adapt the way I work with those Young People so they get the benefits that all their friends get too, with a little work they achieve the same as well.
Kids can be really horrible, but in all honesty, they don't quite understand at that age what they are doing to other children, no excuse for it.. but it could educational for the teachers to chat to them about it anyway. Never too young to learn. x
On a different note, went to Romford and walked all of my 6000 steps needed today and a few more, plus got some tankin tops from Debenhams in the sale and in Sainsbury as well. Great bargains and burned some cals to boot
