[QUOTE="Jenniferleigh1672, post: 517232, member: 14214"] [FONT=verdana][SIZE=2]I'm so glad y'all answered! I feel so less alone:). He is awesome playing with other kids. Eye contact is right on with everyone. He was at a Montessori school for about 3 weeks last fall. I pulled him out because of two reasons. The first was I never had a fuzzy feeling about it and felt that the student to staff ratio was not quite right. The second was he cried so hard whenever I dropped him off and my heart was crushing! He is generally a happy kid, until his brother is getting attention or until he doesn't get his way. I know all kids are that way at times, but he seems that way more. My main problem is that he just doesn't listen. Last night at the playground he was told over and over to NOT pick up mulch. So, of course he picked it up, which meant we had to leave, not fair to my other son. I know the signs and warnings of Autism, and he doesn't seem to have any. I'm thinking more along the lines of ODD. I would never change my Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) son for a million dollars, but I would also hate to have that label for both of my boys. Is this site good for end of the day venting? I could use it every day if so! I haven't even touched on my 14year old! How do sweet little girls turn into such spiteful teens overnight? Being a parent is exhausting.[/SIZE][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
