His mother is clever woman and words it well. She talks about people with special needs being a part of society attending normal schools, giong out to pubs with friends, having a relationship, having the same rights as others. Sounds wonderful but in the real world you can try your best to acheve this but i does not always work out well. My son was in a normal nursery school I got told get take him out the school becauce the school were not trying to and could not cope with him and he ended up in a special school which did a lot for him.
My son always needs a carrer with him, my son has a choice of where he goes for fun in the evenngs and he chooses clubs for disabled people as they are more fun.
My son who has severe learning difficulties I am aware that my son has sexual feelings and wants a girl friend but at the same time he does not have an understanding of the complexities of a relationship. I would not encourage or discourage my son to have a relationship it is his desision, but I would try to help him understand what a relationship entails. Relationships between people can be difficult, for people with special needs relationships will happen but to me they could cause more problems than they could solve.
