Boult, an IEP cannot really help with socialization. It doesn't help if there's a snobby/ whitebread school population or if the teachers have NO clue whatsoever how to teach kids like us. Hell.........kids with learning disabilites (most common sped disabilty) often have significent social-emotional issues.
Very often socio-emotional issues are the direct result of not having a good grasp on language. Most oral kids have OK oral skills, but they aren't sophisticated enough to use socially.
