[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 106624, member: 3419"] Thank you! I've never really paid much attention to what he does while he's lining up his cars (inevitably at the head of the stairs where we will break our necks if we try to step over them, and where he will yell if we even come within 6 ft but it's his fault for choosing a bad location). But when he plays with-his miniature army men, he makes appropriate shooting noises and the dead guys fall over (I'm very tempted to make a joke here about the use of the words "appropriate" and "shooting" in the same sentence). He actually converses with-his friends, although they do the bulk of the talking. Now that you all mention it, I used to arrange my dolls on the shelves and my mom thought I should see a psychologist because I didn't talk to/them like my other friends did. Actually, I played Barbies with-my little sister, but other than that, thought it was stupid because it wasn't any fun with-o her. I couldn't come up with-the scenarios and conversations she did. Besides which, the dolls I was lining up were part of a collection, and it didn't make sense to make them talk. It made more sense with-the Barbies because Barbies were ... Barbies. :-) So I can see that this could go either way ... and that he's outgrowing a lot of this stuff ... and I am fascinated by that new ADHD MRI and CT scan study where it shows that ADHD brains tend to mature at a much slower rate but still mature. I'm thinking the lining up stuff is just who he is. [/QUOTE]
