Thanks guys! I really appreciate all of the input. humanoid5, yep that is pretty much what she IS doing! I am glad to know that you grew out of it, did you have bumps all over your head? Lillian, my daughter, I noticed this morning has BIG bumps in 3 different spots and she has hair stubble there, b... |

I was having a bad time, yesterday morning. I've decided to keep posting here. Being here will toughen me up, a little. I'll get to give advice, at the same time. It's just that I've told a few parents, that autism isn't the end of the world, and that might not be the way that they see it, instead ... |

Do you all think I should be taking her to a psychiatrist? Do they see 3 year olds? My ASD son, 14 never went to one... and if so what kind, where do I start looking and what am I looking for in a psychiatrist? |

My ASD 3 year old is terrified of the potty.. to loud! 2 1/2 seems very late to start walking and yeah, hand flapping is a sign, but a lot of "typical" children hand flap when they get exited. My 21 month old hand flaps just walking around with no emotions. The food preference could go either way to... |

Hi guys, thanks for your feed back. :D I knew my 3 year olds was stimming, but that is what you think my 21 month old is doing too, when she is beating her head on the wall? I admit that this one is worrying me because she is "damaging" her head, leaving large bumps all over the back of her head. No... |

Hi there! I feel terrible that you feel that way about "us"! But listening to your explanation about your family is very informative! I am so sorry you have morons for parents! I am not sure what you would classify me as, I am AD/HD, I guess I think of myself as a NT, but maybe you would not. Just t... |

I am sorry yor are feeling this way, but I have to say, (because I am a mommy and use to giving advice :D), your situation has nothing to do with you having a ASD and your BF being a NT! It has to do with Female vs Male. Every relationship on the planet goes through these things. Women think one way... |

I never hid my sons diagnosis from him, but I never talked about it directly until he asked, at about 9, why he was "different" than other kids his age. I waited because I was not sure he would understand and I did not want to point out the fact he was not "typical" if he did not see it himself. So ... |

I like your idea, just be careful. I know what you are saying and understand your view point. But in a way I do understand why the "media" portrays the harder points of ASD. When my son was little not many people knew about Autism and that was really hard. Any public place I brought him, would for o... |

Hi there, I know what you mean! Have you heard the country song, It's a different world" by Bucky Covington? That is what the song is about. It does seem to change both with time gaps and just life changes. I have 4 brothers and 1 sister, Us 4 older children were always spanked or disciplined when w... |

Hi there, I do not think that there is anything wrong with staying friendly with your MIL. My MIL had 4 boys and no girls, so even when a couple of her sons divorced, she still does stuff with them, and she calls me once a week to see how we are doing and checks up on my daughters. While we lived cl... |
