That's one of the reasons the specialists at my son's school wanted to tag him with Aspergers.

However, that being said - it doesn't preclude the suggestion that he might be stuggling with the work.

well I was actually thinking that he was bored with school because it's too easy for him. I hope his son gets properly diagnosed, that's the bottom line with me. There's nothing worse than thinking someone has one thing when it's really the opposite or nothing at all. We're not there so it's hard to be able to tell about the severity and the fact that his daughter is quiet probably amplifies his son's behavior to him IMO.
