[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 309521, member: 1550"] What country do you come from? I never heard of reception and I can tell it's not the US because you spell behavior wrong ;) We are just parents, but to me he sounds like classic Aspergers. Did I say classic? :) I'd have him see a neuropsychologist. However, some countries don't allow you to just take him to a neuropsychologist (which is why I asked where you live). I have a spectrum kid and he is also very gentle, but he is different. As he got older, his differences became more obvious with his peers. It can help to have early interventions. If others are noticing it, as with my son, the differences are likely there and should be taken care of. These kids can be very naive in life and way too trusting and not "get social cues" so they really do need the assistance. My son also has an obsession and makes weird throat noises (stims). He is sixteen now and doing well, although he still talks to himself in his room. When asked why he'll say, "Nobody else is there so I talk to me." Or "I understand things better if I say them out loud." He has friends at school, but not loads of them and he doesn't seem to mind. He is still different, but he's delightful. He is bright and seems happy. Good luck, whatever you decide to do. [/QUOTE]
