Brook Report post Posted December 15, 2005 If you go into day 2 of this topic, you'll soon see that Thomas is for MUCH bigger kids too. http://www.asd-forum.org.uk/forum/index.php?showtopic=5030 Brook Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mossgrove Report post Posted December 15, 2005 Pretty common I'd say. Many ASD children have little or no sense of 'age-appropriate', they simply like what they like. Similarly they will have less sense of what is gender-appropriate than NT children. I find it quite a refreshing attitude! Simon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
