[quote=Anonymous]My 4.5 year old was a 34 week preemie. never slept longer than 45 mins the first 6 months and then to boot became and is a VERY picky eater. Like turn her head and refuse food. She is extremely intelligent and was an early walker - stood at 9.5 months and never crawled which became a disaster. Like a drunk baby just falling and getting up and falling again. We couldn't take her to restaurants because any restraint (car seat, booster seat etc was torture). she NEVER sits still. No ADHD just likes to do things and doesn't want to stop and sit. At 3 she proclaimed she doesn't watch movies, and well, she doesn't watch movies - it's been over a year. Stubborn. Funny. Bright. We love her but she isn't moved by anyone else's interests. She is her own person. She loves making friends but needs to be programmed all day long. Even as a baby I coudn't just put her in a bouncy chair and go about a task - she demanded my attention. Loves to scream - like SCREAM - thinks it's hilarious. has channelled that into writing her own songs with her microphone and tracks app. 
So I have a difficult kid. We love her dearly and she's emotionally so intuitive. When i see parents with kids that'll just sit on a blanket or rug and play with a toy for more than 45 seconds at a time our jaws are on the floor. [/quote]
