I work with this kid in a controlled environment five days a week. We keep him in a situation where he is almost always in a 1:2 aide or teacher to students and his remarkable peripheral vision and quick hands disrupt the classroom daily. Imagine Mom burned out from 24/7-365 staying on top of everything all the time. It can't be done. I assume a friend invited them to a McD's party and she wanted to be a normal mom for once, doing regular things. No such luck.
