If I move my eyes around parts of the circles rotate, but most of them don't.
If I keep my eyes still, nothing moves.
Is it supposed to rotate even when you're staring at a black dot? |

I just think these are all minor and it's too soon to worry and the best thing they can do is keep en eye out for more symptoms. I agree with everything you said except this. 18 months is not too early to begin asking the right questions. If the kid does have autism an actual dr or neurologist can ... |

But yes. I do. Constantly. As a kid I had a constant running monologue of a story in my head. I would open the door and think, "She opened the door slowly, leaning out to check if anyone was in the hallway before stealing away to the bathroom." For YEARS I did this! Occasionally it accidentally went... |

That kindle you're holding contains more raw computing power than it took to put a man on the moon.

I have a really hard time following movies from the perspective I'm supposed to. It's difficult for me to determine intent or recognize the difference between people who look similar. But mostly, I notice EVERYTHING and I can't stop noticing things that don't matter to the plot. I spent my whole lif... |

At 6 years the brain is JUST starting to form the synapses that will make it possible to comprehend the finality of death. Most children start to ask questions about death at this time. I could imagine that someone with AS might become even more obsessive. If you're concerned ask his doctor but I do... |
