Many parents of children with Asperger’s or high-functioning autism have concluded that homeschooling is the best option for their child. Asperger’s syndrome (AS) is a microbiological disorder on the higher-functioning end of autism spectrum sharing many characteristics with other autism spectrum disorders including the high-functioning autism (HFA). Some of the main characteristics of AS and HFA are: extreme difficulty in developing peer relationships and social skills, difficulty comprehending implied meanings, impairment in the use of eye gaze, facial expressions and gestures to regulate social interactions, lack of attention and auditory processing, etc. Insidermonkey experts made a list of 6 best homeschool curriculum and online resources for Asperger’s and high function autism.
Because of these characteristics that accompany AS and HFA, your child might find school to be a very frustrating environment. A study done by Karen Hurlbutt explains that many children with autism spectrum disorder are very capable but cannot achieve their full potential by attending mainstream schools. the reason for this is that in classrooms with a lot of students all that stimulation can be overwhelming for them. With homeschooling these distractions that cause a lot of stress for children with AS and HFA are reduced to a minimum and a child can dedicate their full attention to the learning process.
