So that's wierd,son knew my conversation without even being there..???

NAS83342

Had a emotional chat with my close friend as we bothe single parents and discussing about our fears around when we get very old (or even worse younger) and die who will be there for them and my worries around my sons aspergers how life will be extra tough for him etc. What was wierd was that I was having this conversation in my room on the phone with door shut he was in different part of house on computer playing game and no way could he have heard me..but next day he had changed radically from being happy to absolutely depressed saying to me what's the point you're going to die and ill be on my own etc and it was wierd as the kind of things he was coming out with were as though he'd heard the conversation on the phone that I had had night before as he never spoke like this before but it leaves me feeling he actually picks up on stuff and any future conversation like this I need to do it in a geographicaly different place to him.

  • houses arnt as soundproof as you like to think, and human hearing can be stronger than you understand... especially in autists.

    myself my ears can still pick up cat alarms and i can hear conversations through walls no matter how thick the wall. i can hear trains from my bedroom at night but the train track is like 50 miles away. dont underestimate the scope of human hearing ability.... perhaps your son may even display a seemingly bad hearing where he cant really hear or comprehend people speaking to him upfront and to him it sounds mumbly, so you perhaps may think his hearing is bad, but that is just different frequency, a person may not perceive direct sound locally but may instead be tuned into long ranged distant sound, and that longer range sound is more pronounced and drowns out the shorter more direct sound... either way everyones ears work differently. he can have ears that can hear you... or perhaps he was actually outside your door at the time without you knowing, listening in after hearing some noise and hearing you talking and wanting to hear what you were saying or if your talking to someone... a house is not private, never has been.... i never liked living in my parents house as i perceive it as not private enough, everyone seems to normalise this lack of privacy as if they think it is private but people are just unaware about how sound travels easily through your doors and walls and nothing in your house is secure.... your tv can even be heard from outside the house, think on that next time your watching anything youd be ashamed of others knowing you watched lol nothing in your house is private as houses arnt built truly private.

    i recently even heard my dads car tyres were punctured... i heard the flowing of air out of it make a squeaking noise.... no one else heard this squeaking noise when i pointed it out and didnt seem to believe me at first until i pointed out a bit of rain reacting to a leak and bubbling up out of the area my ears perceived as making a noise.

    and in college the teacher had a hearing aid that made a stupidly loud high pitched noise that made me jump and hold my ears, no one else reacted to that or could hear it and was wondering what i was doing despite how to me it was stupidly massively loud, loud enough to be painful on the ears so i was thinking they are all crazy for not hearing that loud noise. but they were deaf to that pitch.

    and i also had people be so unaware about sound and say things they dont want me to hear when im standing right next to them. i guess normal people are pretty deaf and dont understand sound very well.
