[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 637212, member: 1514"] Hey Marg...long time no see! Im gonna be honest here as a long time grandparent now. I have been very guilty of seeing issues constantly. What you are describing doesnt sound very aspie to me but I could definitely be wrong. Is this the first grandchild? I dont remember. I do gather he is the first child in this family right? That can lead to certain behaviors. Either the child is extremely independent and does everything early or they can wind everyone around their little fingers and us adults jump to their every desires so they dont have to talk. My oldest granddaughter reverts back to being our "baby" when she is alone with us because I assume she likes feeling special to us. Around others she is a normal 8 year old. I was convinced Jamie's oldest daughter was bipolar from age 2. She may be but for the moment we all just think ADD which oldest granddaughter also has. My grands having ADD is not a big surprise in the least. Neither of Cory's girls talked well at a year. It took his youngest until she was over 2 and a half before she called me Grandma. I would be watchful but wait before I panic. [/QUOTE]
