[QUOTE="DDD, post: 419596, member: 35"] Glad you got through it ok. Reading your post about the smile/smirk I immediately went down to your signature to see if he was an Aspie. Inappropriate responses are part of the dysfunction. When difficult child was a little younger than your son he began to laugh after a soccer team member was injured on the field. Everyone, including me, was aghast. Once we were alone I asked him why he had done that and his response was "I thought I'd cheer everyone up." Geez! I understand how difficult it is to figure it out. Teen boys often smile/smirk to act brave by posturing. Aspie's frequently just don't know how they are suppose to act. When he said "but you were smiing, etc." I'm sure you wanted to explode. Sadly he might have taken the smiles as cues to how to behave. Hang in there. I've been there done that and it is exhausting, frustrating and also frightening to know that "the world" may get the wrong message and treat him accordingly. Hugs. DDD [/QUOTE]
