[quote=Anonymous]Mine came across as smart and talkative at that age. The only thing unusual about him was how well he articulated his words beginning as a young toddler and how large his vocabulary was. He was not hyperactive or rude. He was happy, playful, and again, talked a lot. Talked too much maybe. He still is/does. We didn't see problems until he reached first grade and was forced to spend more time sitting and listening and following directions in school and when social relationships got more complicated. It became apparent that he struggled with managing his frustration and was sometimes rude to his friends and teachers, in a way that was intended to by mean, but made clear that he didn't understand the impact of his words. Frankly, I found the problems he started having surprising. But he is still very happy and confident and playful, and we are working hard at developing the weak areas, so that is the good news.
