[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 421022, member: 1991"] When I had my detailed talk with him, I pointed out that he has to stop trying to do it all himself by instinct, and start using resources. Susie, I don't know if he has actually regressed in some areas, of if he simply has failed to develop there, but has continued to develop amazingly in other areas (especially non-verbal problem-solving). Because of his age, the testing procedure had to change, so to a certain extent it's comparing apples with oranges. Only the degree of discrepancy is now much more obvious. And it couldn't have been so un-obvious two years ago, simply because the tests were different. He's still not full-size. He's probably full height, but still very lean and wiry - looks almost pigeon-chested, scrawny and nerdy. He's always looked like Harry Potter (at every age) so think of a slightly scrawnier Daniel Radcliffe with glasses and a five o'clock shadow. He's trying to get fitter and gain weight - he's about 55 Kg (120 pounds) at the moment, all of it muscle and bone. Not a scrap of spare fat on him. As we say here - "there's more meat on a butcher's pencil." He's shown absolutely no violence, either physical or verbal, since I told him that such threats are taken seriously by the police. I hope the message has got through. Marg [/QUOTE]
