[quote=Anonymous]My kid has autism and is incredibly hard to please. (Same age). We're considering meds, though, but I'm struggling to pull the trigger. My son frequently seems unhappy. Our house bugs him, he often complains he's bored, he doesn't seem to have any friends. I try to support him, but I no longer assume that it's possible or even my job to make him happy. It's just too high of a bar! So ask if you're supporting your child and helping him grow up to be more independent. Don't equate success with his happiness. It's just not always possible! You're not a failure if your kid shows displeasure. [/quote]
