[QUOTE="agee, post: 329927"] I had to laugh about the 'running around the house' trick. He would rather eat dirt than fall for that. The other night I was with a friend watching our kids play tennis (not difficult child, of course) and difficult child was harrassing me, badgering me, launching himself at me, acting ridiculous and she said 'I bet I can get him to stop! Hey, difficult child, I bet you can't run all the way around the tennis court in 2 minutes! I bet you can't beat so-and-so (her daughter, 4). difficult child said NO. I don't want to beat so-and-so. That's stupid. So-and-so took off running. A random little boy who was playing on the playground next to us took off running. Not my difficult child. He picked up a rock and threw it at my car. The funny thing was I'd tried the exact same tactic the week before when I was watching her kid and my difficult child during the tennis. And got the same result. ***************** When I have mentioned high functioning autism to my son's doctors they laugh. Apparently he is way too engaged. Overly so. But I guess I'll keep an open mind before seeing the neuropsychologist. I am suspected childhood bipolar or something to do with his birthmom's alcoholism. Or both. A [/QUOTE]
