I’m glad for you and your son. You said yourself that you made the choice. Even against the advice of your parents and Dr. That is the freedom. Just as nobody stopped you from making the best decisions for your child, this man has jurisdiction. The school will catch it and they have protocols to address the issue. the months gained and relationship lost is not worth arguing with him.
I think it is worth addressing the topic at least one time for the child's sake.
My mother in particular remained in denial about my son's autism despite the years of therapy and a special education inclusion program. She finally admitted he had "a little problem" when he was in his mid-thirties. Thank God she never had a child with developmental issues! What a disaster that would have been!
The thing is, you can't sit around waiting for ostriches to pull their heads out of the sand when it comes to therapy. The children need help as soon as the problem becomes apparent. If the uncle has noticed, it's already apparent.
It's a matter of early intervention. The earlier the problem is addressed, the more likely the improvement. I firmly believe handicapped children deserve every opportunity to have the help they need to remediate their developmental delays. Nobody will ever change my mind on this issue. I've seen too much over the years. Once you have a handicapped child, you're in a community with parents of other handicapped children. There is a marked difference between those who had early intervention and those who didn't.
Fear of arguing with someone should never stop a person from attempting to help a child in need.
