hey shortcake...

i understand how you feel, i am 18 and have worked with children with ASD for 4 years. i think its great that you want to do this!! just letting you know that not all kids are that responsive....some responses will hurt and sometimes they wont remember who you are, you've got to have alot of strength to keep on working. ASD kids don't understand societal conduct, so they wont feel any "duty" ( so to speak) to say hi to you or something. There is a HUGE range though....so some might and some might now.

let me know how it goes, and if you have any questions, i am always here! iam not saying i am an expert but i do have some experience...good luck, and keep reaching out to him!
