[quote=Anonymous]Not OP but same experience. My almost 4 seems NT. He's had the age appropriate problems with sharing and gets overly exuberant in play sometimes but he responds to guidance and I never feel like I'm walking on eggshells to take him to a playdate. My older DS is 6.5yo and I have to be constantly on the lookout for problems when other kids don't obey his rules. He's gotten much better about it, but we've had meltdowns when other kids wanted to play in the blankets he wanted to make a fort with. I also have to watch for the first sign of diminishing coping abilities .. is he tired? is he hungry? when was the last time he ate? It's like taking a 2yo to a playdate except he's a lot bigger and a lot more verbal. Fortunately(?) my friend who happens to have kids near in age (which we use as an excuse to get together) also has a SN son .... so we get to take turns dealing with anti-social behavior but at least we're not judgy.
