It was her son’s first day of second grade, and April Crites worried that he would feel overwhelmed.
Conner, 8, was waiting for the doors to open at his school in Wichita on Aug. 14 when he started to cry. His autism sometimes makes him overstimulated, Crites said, and he had gotten away from his personal aide.
While Conner stood alone in a corner crying, his classmate Christian Moore happened to glance over at him.
