[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 739173, member: 1550"] I agree. Autistic kids have very poor social skills and from the autism group I was in while my son was younger, the about 100 kids who would go to the "social"group were very sweet natured. Now since they had such poor social skills +mine is better than many and learned quickly) some would whistle rudely at mothers and say "you are hot!" Or similar inappropriate things that embarassed the parents. Talking to other moms, many did have melt downs, but were basicslly so sorry after .Some needed medications and had something other than autism too. by the way, the autistic kids did NOT socialize! Parents kind of laughed sadly about it. They played alone or with siblings. We had get togethers at a pool and you would think the kids would throw nerf balls together or floats but they didnt. The group helped the parents more I think. My son played with his sister, but always had fun...likes water. But he didnt interact with strangers. Still doesnt like crowds. I really cant imagine even a very smart autistic being a good manipulator since that requires knowing what makes people tick. They could certainly try but manupulation is only good if you know social rules. I find my son a poor liar too. He lied in such an obvious way. Then he would admit his lie and cry and call himself stupid or hit himself in the head saying "stupid me!" It is excellent that you are going to a neuropsychologist. We had to wait eight months but once it happened we feel it was well worth it. I am sorry about SS. Antisocial is dangerous and of yet they know of no therapy that helps because the antisocial is usually happy to be antisocial and wont change. Love and light! [/QUOTE]
