[quote=Anonymous]So like everyone said, they are all different. Same parents and my kids are so very different. My teen on the spectrum was such a challenging baby and toddler. I was notorious everywhere I went because of his behavior. I got the stink eye and so many judgmental looks and rude remarks and I was schlepping him too all different therapies, doing diet changes and revolving my life around his needs-gave up work. Knock on wood the tweens and teens are so much easier than those years and people comment to me on how polite he is and how hard working and kind. I am still the same parent just trying to do my best, but I guess maybe over time all those therapies actually helped and we got lucky...so far...it could change. My daughter was the the Mayor of the town as a baby and such a happy and social and happy kid through the start of middle school. Now we are dealing with anxiety, some depression and many friendship dramas and I dread high school.[/quote]
