Does anyone try to figure out where his disability came from in the first place? I volunteer at my childs school, when I was in school their were not any children with autism or ADD, now each class has around three each child needing their own helper. I hate to say it but it drags down the learning process for every other child in the class just because we all need to be politically correct.

Hoping you don't volunteer anywhere within any NJ school districts. There is a very active autism ping list here in FR and I believe I can speak for at least a few of the members saying we aren't placing our kids in the most typical setting they can tolerate "in the name of being PC". Be happy that you are on the other side of this and will never have to hear scathing comments coming from someone such as yourself.
