Trying to understand

NAS73103

So bear with me...if you have a child that has additional needs..possibly dyspraxia/dyslexia...high functioning autism is now being looked at...is it possible for someone with high functioning autism to be able to switch on/off traits..such as not wanting to have their food touching on a plate with one set of people, but then doesn't bat an eye or question when the same meal is served up touching with others.???

  • That’s the beauty of it you will never understand no matter how much you try believe me. My daughter switch’s on and off like that . She will really like something today and tomorrow it’s the same thing she will hate it. I try to talk to her about it but never get a straight answer. They live in a different world that we live in. Just try and help as much as you can and be supportive as much as you can. Understanding them that’s a big question mark and I can’t find the answer for the past 3 years.
