[QUOTE="buddy, post: 484308, member: 12886"] Or does he not want to admit he does not have control. Mine does that and I have read tons of articles, recently one about Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) where kids have become so used to being asked why they do what they do. They have learned they need to come up with an answer...but the truth is they just dont have the impulse control or the skills to do better. If they could, most would. Many would rather you think they just wanted to do it,... instead of admitting they are different, disabled, out of control etc. They may not even realize they are doing it because they have been so conditioned to answer the big "why" question. I never ask mine why anymore. He just picks the thing that in his mind at the moment. [/QUOTE]
