[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 434448, member: 1991"] Just a quick note on the subject of sexual molestation - never underestimate the damage that can be done by other kids. Especially if the molesting child was an abuse victim. When this happened to easy child I thought it was a rare event, but I've since heard about it happening at our local school (30 miles from where easy child was molested, a decade earlier) and I have heard about it in other places too. It seems it gets a lot less recognition because it's kids doing it to kids and in the minds of a lot of adults, there's nothing that bad that kids can do. Don't you believe it! The things a scared, disturbed kid can do to another child they perceive as someone they can pass it on to, can be terrifying. We still don't know what was done to easy child and we never will find out now, she blocked it out after about five years. But because of how it was handled, it is still in there doing damage to her, I believe. About whether your son is Aspie or not - it doesn't matter if he doesn't qualify for a diagnosis, he has some similarities and so some of the ways to manage may be similar. That is all. I KNOW Asperger's well, so that's the angle I communicate from. I was not meaning to say that your son definitely has it, only that it can be a useful working hypothesis when nothing else is working. That's why I talked about the possibility of "some component of autism" - it is possible for a person to have some traits, but not enough for a diagnosis. More than possible, it is quite common, especially if there are other issues such as ADHD. Marg [/QUOTE]
