Turkish Delight - i am going through the process of getting Hamish diagnosed with Aspergers.

He gets a warning every day for talking, he doesn't seem to get the when someone else is talking we listen cues.
He is not the most talkative child unless you get him started on a topic which he is interested in and then its hard to stop him. His latest thing is Bionicles, everything is bionicles, every drawing every conversation is about them.

Getting dressed is one of his other biggest challenges , he has sensory issues so hates the feel of certain materials, collars, zips etc and hates socks with a passion. I have made him a visual checklist , we have some boxes made into a train and on the side are magnets, then i put the picture of what he is to wear on each carriage, when he has done that item he takes the picture off and puts it in the train...
I too have cried about this, My Mum is a great support and has stood by with all of this my DH really doesnt have much to say about it and my Dad thinks he will grow out of it ...
OMG OMG i didn't know that these kids hate certain feels and certain materials. DS (Devrim) hates/loathes buttons and zips with a passion. i just thought that that was him. I am absolutely shocked by what you have said about Hamish. He has a school polo or any plo with buttons must be done up to the neck, no buttons can remain undone. He looks soooo dorky. One night, in the middle of the night, he was yelling and screaming that the quilt itself had buttons at the foot end of it and he felt them whilst he was asleep, somehow and we were like cutting buttons off the quilt at 3am in the morning. I had to sew it shut as all the down was showing through. He will not wear pjs, where the pants have buttons. I have to cut them off. I cannot believe it. I just thought he was weird. School pants have zips, so i had to find one with the elasticized waist as he won't wear the ones with zips.
He loves touching/feeling skin though. He will rub my arm whenever he is close to it.
I am still shocked.

You are very lucky that your mum supports you. I have told my mum and she doesn't believe us, because it is a syndrome with no physical symptoms.

Devrim is also quiet when he is not interested in the subject matter, but he will try and butt in and say something about a topic of his interest. He doesn't understand either that you need to wait your turn, when other people are talking. He just won't do it.
