Gentle Christian Mothers Community - View Single Post - How to live with a mini Sheldon Cooper

We do not have a diagnosis. I have talked with friends who work with special kids. They feel his issues are more intelligence and less likely to be autism. One friend spent an entire day with him, knowing my concerns. I've worked with spectrum kids and he doesn't quite fit there. I'm not an expert, but my gut says no.

His inability/unwillingness to express his needs have caused us to not go places, end family games and similar.

So, maybe I'm expecting too much? Something more is going on? He doesn't like/thinks he can't spread butter on pancakes. He drips drinks and grunts/makes noises to get someone else to get him a napkin rather than picking up the one right in front of him.

He gets stuck, I need to help him get unstuck.
