If you have an aide, a positive staff, guidance for the teacher and aide, a good IEP (what you want to teach and how to get there), there is no reason that inclusion should not work. And as for “seeing” your child in Peter… well, he was much older. Who says that your child will act like this at that age. In fact, GOOD inclusion is probably your best bet to avoid it.
