[QUOTE="Malika, post: 411781, member: 11227"] Thanks Beth. Well, I guess as a general rule it IS good for adults to speak to children respectfully anyway :-) But I take the point... I know I seem to keep resisting these suggestions but I honestly don't think my son has any form of autism. But he DOES have some social difficulties, which makes my heart bleed for him sometimes because he is a very social little chap who longs to engage with people. He is just too exuberant a lot of the time and does not understand about waiting and listening (yet)... He also does respect SOME adults and would never talk to his teacher, I think, the way he talks to me... Funny, isn't it? I've read this is common among children with ODD - although at present I am trying to avoid that acronym!! Explosive is better, I think, and gives me some ways of dealing with it... [/QUOTE]
