| Re: Advice about son please?!
Yes, if you are in the US at least, not only should you be given a full explanation of your son's evaluation, you have a right to be fully informed if your child is deemed special needs though a time limit within which that info must be shared may exist... for instance in some cases that may be within 60 days. By all means, ask that it be shared with you and explained. As someone with a special needs nephew I have seen first hand how important being a strong advocate for your child can be. It can mean the difference between your son getting all the services he's entitled to or being lost in the crowd.
If you're in the US learn your child's and family's rights under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act. Your school district should be able to give you that info if you're unable to access it elsewhere. There are several advocacy groups like Autism Speaks that can also provide you info. Get and stay involved in your son's education plan and don't be afraid to ask questions and speak up to any of the professionals involved in your son's care. Early education is a recognized successful intervention and also your son's right by law in the US but it is often a matter of the squeaky wheel getting the oil.
Big hugs for you and your son. I will keep you in my prayers.
