[QUOTE="buddy, post: 500784, member: 12886"] I agree second post confirmed what you were saying in the first (Yeah, I was one of them who mentioned it, sorry)...and I can see the sensory thing. Itching has always been an issue for my son and neuro says it can happen with kids who are wired like that. He feels things differently and it registers in a different way (by the way, she is mom to an aspie)... Dont let anyone tell you because he can interact with his sibs he is too social. Many kids with autism do have some successful relationships especially because their sibs grow up with them and are simply used to things being on their agenda and so naturally adjust you dont even notice it because it all runs so smoothly you may not realize the dynamics going on. His struggles with things not going on how he plans them in his head sound very familiar. Oh, the itching again.... my neuro said, can you imagine being nice to others if you had a for example... yeast infection forever????!!! Not that this is the cause of everything but what a layer of issues to have to deal with! My son scratched his head and his bottom would get itchy and he has had multiple exams across professions and nothing is wrong. now that puberty has hit, there is additional itching from the hair we believe....plus other reasons to itch Know what I mean???? Poor kid. He hates it. When you go to an Occupational Therapist (OT) or speech lang person, make sure they have experience with aspergers/high functioning autism so you dont have to endure the ...he is too social, he makes good eye contact etc...comments. If they have trouble modulating social situations in different areas, they can be on the spectrum. Your son, from what you have said sounds like this is an issue. Not bossy, just can't take on the other's persepctives well, even when you try to explain...it is all rote, not a true understanding inside. Best of everything to you.... if you can get to the bottom of things, whether spectrum stuff or other little pieces that cross over but when all put together, add up to big struggles, you will be able to get therapy and support. Keep us in the loop, will be nice to know how he is/you are doing! [/QUOTE]
