Welcome. Always nice to see caretakers of children who take in interest. Are there any particular things you would like to know from the top of your head?
 
Hello and welcome! What a lucky kid to have two grandparents who are invested in learning. That is a wonderful gift to give to a child. Thank you for being here. Please let us know if you have any questions as you figure out the forum.

Thank you. I'm sure I will have many questions. Right now I was just looking around to see if i can help find my grandson somewhere to go to meet other kids his age like him.
 
Hi @jb59
Welcome to the Forums

There is lots of experience in the older posts, so do have a go at searching for topics that are interesting to you.
 
Thank you so much for coming here to help you understand your grandson, and his particular needs. This one, simple act will make his life smoother than it would have been otherwise.

Thank you so much for doing this for him!
