[QUOTE="Celticdawn, post: 518792, member: 14243"] Thank you for mentioning Auditory Processing Disorders (APD). I did some research on that, and he really does fit into that category well. He will cover his ears if someone blows their nose, and he loathes the shower because it's too loud. Any loud noise makes him unhappy. Also, he is easy to have conversations with on a one to one basis, but if there's anything else going on around him, he "checks out". He tends to have one sided conversations, and he has difficulty following directions with more than one step, sometimes even with only one step. I am going to work with him around the sound issues and see if that helps. It doesn't explain his peeing on the floor (I noticed he is peeing behind the toilet this morning, and GAG, in the bathtub), but it certainly explains why he doesn't always follow directions. He's too young for an evaluation, per the website I read, as he's only 5, but it's worth a shot for us to be aware that he may be struggling in this manner. Thanks again.. [/QUOTE]
