My son (8) is high funcioning autistic. Unfortnately last year he was teased unmercifully. He is in French Immersion and can speak french very well as well as English. He was an A, B student until this year. He is now afraid to go to school for fear of being teased. He has started to be aggressive because of his fear of being teased. I want to home school him for a year and give him a break. He has an IEP for speech. I would like to have him go to school for speech and spend a couple of hours in the french class 2 to 3 times a week so he doesn't lose his french spot in school. If he drops out he can not get back in french next year. Is this something we should be considering for him? Moms instinct says yes but what do you think.
Thank you
