[QUOTE="Tiapet, post: 358372, member: 455"] Thank you so much for the history lesson. That is really interesting and sounds like SO would REALLY appreciate the knowledge/history of it. This would make him desire it even more so. He likes things like that. He has a dulcimer and several flutes (handmade) as well. I try once in a while to get something different to add to his eclectic selection (that he has to keep locked away from difficult child's cuz they love the stuff-which he plays for them). Beyond his ADHD I really think he may be somewhere in the Autism spectrum himself. He displays some of the traits. He is a pure genius and nerd to extreme. The brain power he has is fascinating! It's like he's a walking encyclopedia of really random stuff and lots of it. My oldest difficult child and him can get into some serious conversations/debates and I'm like way out in left field when they do that. And math, geeesh! I'm back at like beginners level and they are solving these serious equations that I haven't the faintest clue of what the heck they are talking about.:frowny: And yet when it comes to organization or memory, oh my gosh, he is terrrrrrible! He can't be on time for anything ever ever ever! I mean never! He could have 2 hours lead for something and STILL be late. Go into the other room for 1 thing (on his mind to remember) and in the process absolutely forget what he was going in for just that quick. OR, get side tracked with something else going on through his head or that he sees and off he goes to deal with it. It's really crazy how it happens. I've never seen the distractibility on his level, even in difficult children. (forgetfulness) It is awfully debilitating to him. I don't understand HOW he knows all he does with this happening.
