[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 190225, member: 1550"] I disagree on the boundaries. I had bipolar as a kid, and it was pretty bad. I didn't have as bad boundary issues as those with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) who literally can get in your face and scream because they don't understand it is wrong. THey also tend to hug a lot when it's not appropriate. This doesn't mean all Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) kids. As a bipolar kid, I didn't know when to stop talking and was seen as bossy and didn't have many friends. I had poor boundaries, but not as bad as my son. Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) kids are more clueless, don't "get it." Bipolar kids are not as clueless, although I remember being a spacy kid. I wouldn't go up to anyone and just slap him or grab his ruler or scream in his face. I knew better than that even when I was almost dying because it was so hard to sit still in my desk when I was hypomanic. And I could hold a give-and-take conversation. Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) kids usually can't. They answer "yes." "no." "I don't know." They talk inappropriately about their own interests and ignore what others are saying (I'm talking about with peers). My son has improved with social skills classes and his Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) interventions. He used to touch people, especially hair. He would scream in faces and laugh. He would hit and run away and think it was funny. He did not know how to hold a conversation. Many, if not most, have "iffy" or "off to the side" or "looking down or all around" eye contact. Very hard question. Boundary problems are rampant in kids with disorders. They need serious intervention. [/QUOTE]
