My son’s teacher gave me her description of him..
That he is clever and bright. He is a true problem solver and his memory is unmatched. My son is 14 and has autism, when teachers recognize his abilities before his disabilities I feel so validated for him. His dad and I see all his potential and see how much new information he is able to retain, but you would never know because there’s no output unless it is something concrete.
Finally he is in a new school (after much frustration) that acknowledges his way of learning and understanding this strange world around him. I couldn’t be more grateful for his new support system. I am so proud of my son. I am so confident in him and I believe in him and can’t wait to be beside him through all his progress.
