[QUOTE="tammyjh, post: 112494, member: 3072"] My difficult child does some of this and its partly due to not understanding nonverbal communication overly well. She doesn't like to be interrupted by anyone and it drives her crazy if someone does it. However, she has no problems interrupting and does it all the time. She has deficits in understand the flow of conversation and when its appropriate to break in or when its her turn to speak. She is also a nonstop talker and I've read that for individuals with nonverbal learning problems, its hard for them to learn from their environment through means other than talking. They talk themselves through almost everything they do and they feel the need to involve other people...for validation I suppose. difficult child sees me (and the others in the house) as her link to the outside world. As she talkes herself through everything she does, she involves us to make sure she's doing it right. When you mentioned difficult child having to tell you what happens with his game, it reminded me of mine having to tell me everything she does. She's not really trying to start conversations with me....just inform me. I think to feel connected in some way. It can be very very annoying because I feel I'm being "jabbered" to death some days and I just want a few minutes of peace. You are right, others don't understand the quirks and are much less tolerant. [/QUOTE]
