I think it would be a good idea to enroll Noah to school, a mini community that he might able to generate friendship, he would had someone to play with, be more adapt to group environment and able to learn something.
Challenge to find the right School
I had very limited options to find him a right school. Many of the schools rejected him right after I made my note that my boy was on Autism Spectrum Disorder. It was very heartbroken at first but then I was kind of 'immune' to handle rejections.
This school that agreed to take Noah was viewed as a 'lousy place'. It had no formal classroom, merely a shop lot that cater for 2 in 1 day care cum nursery kind of center. But this was the only place that willing to take my boy in.
For 2 years Noah had been with this center, he still not able to be seated in a group, not able to queue up and still running and walking around, mind his own business and living in his own little world there. Opportunity was given to him to participated the school concert. He was unable to perform in his first as well as the recent concert. No significant improvement but Noah was willing to be on stage, minding his own business like he was totally out of his performance. He was not on track to follow to perform the actions but was day dreaming, lying or sat on the stage did nothing. However, I was still very grateful that he was given second chance despite with such condition.
Noah is now very well adapt to his center life. He was exempted from homework and exam. There were many things that Noah is not ready. He still on his diaper to school during these 2 years and we plan to take it off next year.
