[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ll concur that it seems extreme.  We did an eval for my son at Mindwell, and it was a very thorough report. If you can afford a private evaluation, I think you’ll find it helpful.

How long has she been this way?  What was she like as a toddler and during the elementary years? Any trauma or family challenges?[/quote]

No trauma or family challenges.  She's lived a charmed life.  She was always a little different since she was a newborn.  As a baby and toddler, she was always extremely tuned into her surroundings down to the microscopic details - like pieces of dust. She never was able to figure out how to nurse (got too distracted, and never was able to properly latch). She barely napped, even as a newborn. She took a 45 minute max nap, and then stopped naps altogether at age 2. Always endlessly inquisitive and stopped to smell the roses - a walk down the block took half an hour. Never liked being constrained (seatbelts) or hugs or any affection. Always had an almost photographic memory.  Never liked any of our sitters or nannies (except 1) - mainly because they either tried to keep her from doing unsafe things or they asked her "too many questions" like "are you hungry?".  [/quote]
