[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don’t want to hijack the conversation, but am curious what signs of any your daughters had as toddlers and young children. [/quote] New to this conversation, but my "high functioning" 2e DD had very few signs. Mainly not liking loud noises, like an outsized reaction to an ambulance driving by or those blasted auto toilets and loud have dryers in public restrooms. Otherwise very social since being a baby. Eye contact and everything. She was elected elementary school class "President" for several years because was very creative and could lead the kids in wild made up games. Played better with energetic boys than quieter kids. Some of that might have been the ADHD outcompeting the ASD. ADHD diagnosed in 5th grade, ASD in middle school.[/quote] None. The only thing was she was an incredibly stubborn child. Outgoing, smart, athletic. Struggled as got older became even more stubborn. No compromise was possible[/quote]
