Well this time hope he's autistic enough

Just got a call from Special Olympics. Like everything else in our state the eligibility requirements are a pain in the tush. They are just undergoing some changes to include kids with autism who have average/above IQ's for situations just like ours where the kids are unsuccessful in mainstream activities. I guess under the current regs even some down syndrome players don't qualify. It is still a gray area and I am thinking he isn't going to qualify.
I meet with them on Wednesday, wish me luck.
The one thing I hate about AS/HFA. Too "disabled" to be "normal" and too "normal" to be "disabled". There really is no where they fit. They need supports but don't qualify.
