Fight for autistic services seems endless for parents Nicole and Arran McWhirter didn't know they would spend so much of their first year back in the United States in court. The couple moved from Argentina, where they worked, to Hillsborough after their son, Owen, 3 at the time, was diagnosed with high-functioning autism. They chose the Chapel Hill area because of its medical programs and many families with autistic children. What they didn't anticipate was fighting the school district in an expensive legal battle for special education services. Sadia Latifi, The Raleigh News and Observer, July 16, 2009
