Sadly, I have the opposite problem. I don't know when to shut up. I'm so nervous about the silence because I know you're "supposed" to say "something" and I never know what to say so I ramble.

@ Kat15
You could be wrong but I've heard that before from people who would know for sure.... so it's probably true.
Although that accounts for today's puberty boom, I wonder about those that have it inherited... would they start at age 3 now?? |

| I do, all the time. I was reminded of this just last night. Hubby and I spent some time playing cards. We don't talk when we play cards really. Unless it's to discuss the game we're playing... or something comes up. It's weird...in a way. Felt awkward to me. We watched a movie last night afterward, ... |

| Sad to say, but I know exactly what you are talking about. My oldest son, T, is 11 now. He'll be 12 on August 26. He first attempted suicide at age 3 by wrapping the sleaves of a sweatshirt around his throat and pulling as tight as he could.. that's how I found him when I brought his juice to him...... |

Nice to meet you, Todd.
I'm an adult with high-functioning autism. I have two sons with an ASD. (AS = Asperger's Syndrome; ASD = autism spectrum disorder).
Welcome to the forum. I hope it's what you need it to be. |
