[QUOTE="whateveryousay2007, post: 105529, member: 4265"] I think the children should be seen and not heard stems from the era that my parents/grandparents were raised in. Act up and I'll beat the snot out of you.... Kids are kids...they are impatient and of course they act out sometimes. They haven't learned all the social cues they need to deal with life like most (not all) adults have. Add ADD, Asperger's or any other impairment to the mix and it's a wonder they process things as well as they do. With that being said....I have on one instance snapped at someone for comments. My mom was shocked that I did it. I didn't feel well and difficult child was being impatient. The woman made a comment similar to "my kids didn't act that way". I looked at her and told her that "your kids don't have autism either, do they?" I try not to talk about his "issues" in front of him because I don't want him to feel like there is something wrong with him. I probably shouldn't have said it...but it just climbed all over me. I think the special needs comment is good. I go to Vandy tomorrow for testing. I'm curious to see what they have to say. [/QUOTE]
