My son is 5 years old ...I totally get how you feel! My son is 5 years old as well, and has a different range of "unusual" behaviours from your son, but present and needing to be understood. I too sometimes think that he is "typical", because this is all we see everyday (we have no other children) and it becomes totally normal for us. Then, like you, I spend time with typical kids and see the vast chasm between them and my son. I try not to let it bother me, and I am more successful in this some days than others. I am getting better at celebrating the small things, like when responding to a question he will say "yes" instead of repeating the question to indicate a positive response (he is all over a "no" response, no problems there!). I also take a look at him and see the happy, affectionate, joy filled kid (who is also cute as a button), and try and remember that on days his behaviour is stressful and worrisome.CanadaLeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07124905677286554782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8044176900969759259.post-25256549683486519852013-02-22T21:38:14.161-07:002013-02-22T21:38:14.161-07:00"normal" can be so boring!
My step-son L..."normal" can be so boring!<br />My step-son Liam (now in grade 9) is very proud of his autism and the gifts he has found. In grade school, he wasn't so sure about it. My wife and I just got sweatshirts for Autism Awareness month. Once he saw them, he wanted one that says "I'm autistic and proud of it".The Gift of Autismhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03052832510200084632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8044176900969759259.post-19977878577512704662013-02-22T16:06:10.783-07:002013-02-22T16:06:10.783-07:00I agree with Mac, he is a cutie patootie, and yes ...I agree with Mac, he is a cutie patootie, and yes you are a good mother, or you wouldn't feel the way you do :)A Legion for Liamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11765107421999696460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8044176900969759259.post-69635899163195455192013-02-22T10:48:19.346-07:002013-02-22T10:48:19.346-07:00He's beautiful. and you are a wonderful mother...He's beautiful. and you are a wonderful mother.
