[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 352646, member: 1550"] If you were in the US, bet he'd have a diagnosis. of Aspergers. You may want to read up on it and see if it fits. If you think it does, there are a lot of online resources to help you parent him in the special way he needs it. I have an Aspie (or close to one) and, yup, he's quirky and very anxious about anything that is new, even at sixteen. Never saw any teenager so DISinterested in getting his driver's license. He told me, "I'm only driving on the quiet streets." He's my fourth kid and all my other kids couldn't wait to get their licenses and drive off with their friends. He doesn't really socialize much at home so it's important that we get him involved in appropriate (the key word here) activities for him where he can succeed AND be with other kids. [/QUOTE]
