[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 431611, member: 1550"] What do you think autism looks like? My son is on the spectrum and he was always sort of social...just very strange...lol. There is no way autistic kids look or act. They are all very different. It is a spectrum. Some kids are extremely impaired, others have lesser problems. The "HAS to have one thing here and one thing there" *is* an autistic trait. And they don't like change at all. It can cause a meltdown. Can it be normal too? Depends on the other aspects of the child's personality. Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) kids tend to have a terrible time socializing with same age peers...often, at a young age, they parallel play rather than interact. Or they interact inappropriately by grabbing everyone's toys or hitting them (no, this is not normal for a three year old...I've raised five three year olds). Also they are prone to meltdowns over things that puzzle us. Sounds like a smart therapist! Just my .02 0n that :) Lots of experience with that here :) [/QUOTE]
