A school counselor's job is to work with children who are having some problems in school, some of those problems are social. The counselor would be remis to fail to point out why your child is having problems in social interactions with other children. You may not notice it as being out of the normal social context, that doesn't meant the counselor has discriminated because they try to explain to you why your child is having problems.
Some children have normal to high intelligence so they don't quality for Special Ed classes yet have severe and debilitating social dysfunctions and have what is termed an Autism Spectrum Disorder, inappropriate, dress, behavior and social interactions are common. If your child has such a disorder, such as Asperger's, you could find yourself in need of that counselor's observations as you ry to obtain the needs and services for your child. Many parents overprotect their children, deny when their child has a problem, so they fail to qualify for entitled services. Please, stop and take what this counselor has to say, seriously, see if your child needs help and that they get the help they need. How a child presents themselves says a lot about the supportive nature of their homes.
