[QUOTE="nvts, post: 398861, member: 3814"] Beth! I think you might want to take a look at the Autistic Spectrum info that SRL was suggesting. See, I've got an Aspie that was exactly like your son. I mean almost to the letter. Many of the issues that you're describing fit him to a T. I'll call it the "over-zealous" hugging, the grabbing on to the dog, the 10,000 "I love yous" thoughout the day. The "bull in a china shop" way. The controling play. All of it. Believe it or not, it turned out that there were a lot of sensory issues involved, anxiety (that could be what's fueling his fire as well - it quite often presents as anger in children), plain old anger, etc. Everyday Aspergers write ups show up with "little professors". They seem quirky like the nerds in school when we were younger. Socially inappropriate. You've read it so you know what I mean. Then there are the Asperger kids that have you end up checking in here! It's like nothing sinks in. Like they've got to experience it to believe you. Very frustrating indeed. I would also check out NonVerbal Learning Disorder also. It could be (NonVerbal Learning Disorder (NVLD)) something that you wouldn't have thought of because he's bright, but it traditionally becomes more obvious when the reach school age. Pull him out of preschool? I don't know...if he's on the spectrum, the sooner he's with other kids, the more social skills he'll witness. My eyes are drooping (it's been a heck of a month today!) so I'm going to go. Keep your chin up! We all understand! Beth [/QUOTE]
