            Yes, u are lucky. I’m lucky too. At least they can function and have a decent life. Many famous pp are like that too.

            My boy is called ‘the noti boy’ by his classmates and in any class that he goes to coz he doesn’t conform to social norms. I guess I have to teach him how to behave as close as possible to the NT kids. He’s still walking around in class. Sigh.

                Why they label them ? I feel if that the case other NT also consider ASD in some point if one of their brain is disconnect to certain components like they can learn or difficult in learning . Whereas ours has not difficulties in learning , they just no socialize or interact skill

                  Yr son prefer to walk around in class to observe other stuff rather then caring for classmate or teacher feel right . They just dont give a damn to what pp think lo .

                    if possible, try not to send autistic child to those academic stressful school that are heavily ladden with tons of homework. eg: Chongfu

                    my child's kindergarten Teacher had a friend who sent her autistic son to Chongfu. Lower primary (P1 & P2), with lots of encouragement, love & support at home, he pulled through. But from mid P3 moving up to P4, he can no longer cope (due to heavy workload seeping in). Eventually, transfered him out to another Mainstream school that's not so taxing.

                    if you choose a moderate Mainstream school that is not so academically demanding but with lots of support from the school, then this is a good, right fit for the child to join. Look for those Mainstream school(s) that are friendly towards special need kids. The choice of correct Mainstream school is important - can make or break a child.

                      Labeling is just to have a name and identify what it is. Just like us calling a flu, a cough or chicken pox. If u don’t have a name for it, how are the drs going to identify and help u? So don’t dwell too much on that. Just like if there is no name for chicken pox, it is a lot scarier just like during the SARS period when nobody had a name to the disease. I think u have associated too much negativity to the condition. It may be more challenging for us but it’s not too bad. It’s not cancer. They won’t die from it. Seriously I rather this than cancer or any deadly disease anytime.
