[QUOTE="tinaninea, post: 146931, member: 5053"] Thanks for the welcomes & thank you SRL for the links. The stemming videos brought me to tears, so you can guess what I'm thinking about the hands thing. And I sent in a request to joing the Hyperlex group. I actually researched hyperlexia, autism, ADHD, etc. when he was about 3 and hyperlexia was the one that I always went back to and read about over and over again because most of the characteristics were almost exact, but a few were not even close. Of course I always try to remember that this is just a list and that each child is his or her own individual and is not going to have every trait. And I thought that I read that it was hereditary and went hand in hand with Dyslexia, and that is something that my father and my sister both have. My little sister's Dyslexia is pretty severe too. Anyway, we haven't made it to the doctor yet, but I spoke with his teacher today and she informed me that he has been throwing screaming fits in class since the beginning of the school year. I had no idea!!! I know he does that with us, but I didn't think he did it with others. She said he had one yesterday because his folder was not in the order he wanted it in! She also brought up the hand flapping and she said that sometimes she has to repeat what he's supposed to be doing to him several times. We both agreed that he has no trouble with focusing his attention as long as it is on what he wants to focus on. [/QUOTE]
