[QUOTE="keista, post: 508123, member: 11965"] Sounds like an Aspie to me. Repeating "I don't know" and hitting himself, cinched it for me. But like DDD said, if he's found his niche and functioning well, then just leave it alone. If he ever hits a roadblock in life, you can pull out your concerns over the possible diagnosis and that may help him understand himself and his world better. Mom - Someone who has a professional license but chooses a "simple" job has issues. I say that without sugar coating or excuses because I'm that kind of person. Not a criticism, but just something else to think of when you view your step son and the tree he came off of. This concerns me more than anything else. She knows he won't decide, and she's using it as a cop out to keep from making the decision herself, and ultimately keeping him from spending time with his dad. Your husband should be a bit more demanding in getting to spend time with Stevie. It would be different if he said NO, but he simply can't decide which means that either way is OK with him. Try to convey that (gently) to husband and/or Biomom and get more visits with the boy (assuming you want them, it sounds as if you do) [/QUOTE]
