All right, did the social class conference. Things are going well. Though I did talk to another dad there yesterday, and it could be that social skills are improving simply because these kids are older. There's no way to prove exactly where that improvement comes from. There is no A/B testing in life.
Even in the worst case, though, it's an activity the guy enjoys that gives us access to analysis from licensed counselors that is fairly insightful. At best, he'll get skills that will help him not get run over in middle school.
