Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

BTW

any of y'all have to deal with asperger types?

There are still some giant social oops that my eldest is doing. Kid can't remember some basic social stuff...that he has been reminded about a jillion times over the years.

Don't get it..... all of the kids issues are my issues.... but I don't -think- I did some of the stuff he is doing at such an old age.... ...

not sure why he doesn't have it down yet. :confused:

Yesterday a classmate walked up to my kid and one other person. Classmate started telling other person the cool stuff that he and my kid had done in class. My son leaned forward and put his head down on the desk in front of him, without any comments etc.
Have had a few students with Aspergers - one of them took the most brilliant care of our animals while we were on vacation. True, socially, he struggled, but his relationships with my animals were amazing! He even called to check on a couple things he was concerned about after we had returned.
Another was in a show choir I directed. He didn't know they would have to be "touching" or he might not have done it. Instead, any time I had him swing a girl around, or even walk arm in arm, he would just look petrified. We all adored him though, and he stuck with it even though he was way outside his comfort zone!
