[quote=Anonymous]Is it OCD, or is it high-functioning autism? My son has HFA, and has difficulty conversing on anything other than his preferred subjects. He can connect with people because he's pleasant and non-threatening, but he's strictly a follower, and only chimes in when it's in his sphere of interest. And then he can't shut up. He has not been invited to anything this year except one playdate with an old friend of his, now in a different school. Since he has no phone and we are not on social media, he doesn't know what he's missing. However, I suspect the group he hangs out with at school doesn't actually socialize that much outside of school - they're all geeks just like he is. I think your son is in the wrong crowd, honestly, and that you should have a talk on finding more congenial people.[/quote]
