[QUOTE="whatamess, post: 484719, member: 7664"] Age 7 is a general marking point for reasoning, expanding perspective, etc. If age 7 is the average age for this type of thought process you will also have children on either end of a range surrounding that number. It may be perfectly 'normal' for a child to display this at age 10, regardless of whether you would prefer it to be possible at 4,5,or 6. If you add in an adhd or autism spectrum component the age at which this occurs should be expected to be much older in the normal course of those children's development. That, of course, does not mean the child shouldn't be exposed to and have the thought processes narrated for him/her in the mean time. [/QUOTE]
