But then, we're betwixt and between--mainstreaming was never the end of the road for us, more of the beginning. And some of the issues we're facing now are more of the mental health persuasion than autism-related, specifically (mood regulation would be a big one right now. Boy howdy). And to many families these would seem like boutique problems, but having a kid who mostly "passes" and is living a relatively normal life doesn't mean that there are no sequelae, that we'll ever be home free. Says one half of my brain at the same time I keep reminding myself that we won the freaking autism lottery.
