[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 602475, member: 14557"] I wouldn't worry too much. Yes, he sounds spectrumish also to me. Violent talk is of course disturbing, but for Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) people it can easily be just talk, way to convey their anxiety. Anyway, while I'm usually very big for peer influence, to me it seems very unlikely you son would start to copycat this kid. His behaviour is odd enough that most likely he is ostracised by others and certainly not copied and admired by others. In best case others are tolerating him and being nice to him and that of course would be admirable behaviour to copy by your son. What you need to worry about is behaviour of the 'top dogs' of the team, not a quirky one. Quirky one doesn't have any pull normally. [/QUOTE]
