Stephanie Report post Posted August 30, 2007 I have read on here a few comments from people with 6 year olds. Is this a time of great change in an ASD kids life? I only ask because over the last 12 months I have noticed my son (now 6 and a half) seems to have developed a lot of the more text book autistic mannerisms ... speech volume, jabbers to himself a lot, over obsessive, over anxious, talks constantly about tamagotchis whether anyone is listening or not, sensory auditory problems, bossy, challenges other kids a lot. He has also reverted back to jumping up and down when he is excited ... which he hasn't done for the last 2 years. Is this a normal thing? There was me hoping, he was going to lose a lot of his autistic traits and not gain some! Stephanie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

baileyj Report post Posted September 7, 2007 my son is 6 nearly 7, he too has changed alot this year, more agressive, more obsessive, shouting, if he doesn't want to do something getting very angry with us. i was going to put a post up similar to this asking the same question. i don't have any answers, just keep persevering. its hard though.
