In my non-educator but highly educated opinion, I would think that what he does or doesn't do on his homework would be a good indicator of where he is in the classroom.

I know this is off topic a bit but I was thinking about this today and wanted to share my little thought bubble.  :-) This site is managed almost exclusively from my Samsung Galaxy Note 3. Please forgive any typos as auto-correct HATES me. ;-) Follow @Lost_and_Tired "Like" me on Facebook Visit the My Autism Help Forums To reach me via email, please Contact Me

Elliott’s school is amazing but let it be said, I will always stand up for my boys, even if it means going toe to toe with the people I admire and respect. My kids will always come first.

Sometimes routine is a very bad thing

NEVER say to an Autism parent that, they just need their butt whooped. Not only is that pretty ignorant but it's pretty do insensitive as well.

It was like a train wreck because I hadn't intended on having this discussion with him in front of the boys but he wouldn't stop talking. It got to the point where Elliott and Emmett were pointing out the inconsistencies in his story. I then told them to stay out of it as it wasn't their concern and I told Gavin to keep his mouth closed until we get home.

I have to be honest, washing my hands of Gavin's school work, while the right approach, feels terribly irresponsible.
