[QUOTE="Curlandra, post: 455657, member: 12695"] He actually loves noise and echos. He thinks it's cool. He has started noticing little noises (like a siren or someone hammering) and will stop and say "Mama, noise. Listen." But it never seems to bother him. As for my husband...he blames his mistakes or misfortunes on everyone but himself. He does behaviors (like randomly hitting a wall, not punching it, just hitting it without purpose) that I ask him not to do because my son mimics him. When he gets mad he won't speak. He is always tired. He had suicidal thoughts. His mood was all over the map. There is more, just can't think of it right now. He has been on a couple different medications and he is doing much better. He is much more even keeled but still pretty anti-social. He is a computer programmer and really good with numbers. Bad with words. He also has mild dyslexia. I was thinking of waiting until my son goes in for his next well-visit in December to bring it up to the pediatrician. Do you all think that is too late. I figured that we might be able to learn some different parenting skills in the meantime to see if we could find something effective. Redirection does work sometimes, other times it results in him falling on the floor in a dead weight heap. One specific trigger I did discover was one boy who was in our old playgroup. His behavior was always 10,000 times worse around that child. He also seems to need to be constantly active (like his dad). I don't have a problem with that, but I just don't want to shove him in sports and hope he works it out. [/QUOTE]
