Hey, can I just quickly ask, I will be back to do a proper read & reply...
I was just asking Glenn about some stuff he mentioned he did at school today (he has had his referral put in & think they must have been doing some assessments with him today) While talking he was really being over the top with his facial expressions. But not realising. So much so that while he spoke one side of his mouth hardly moved yet the other side was like he was the joker or something. I watched him & the way he moves his face is really weird when he talks. Like his facial movements don't match up with the words. I have noticed it before but this was really obvious? Also. while talking, I had to keep drawing his attention back to me but mid way through telling me something he walked off & knocked over one of the other kids block towers! Then came back & had a good ol laugh about what he just did while I was asking why he did it & how he thinks it would have made him feel to have that done?
THEN in a moment of frustration (about 10 minutes or so later) still playing with blocks he grabbed Isla by the neck & shoulder & screamed in her face while being really quite fierce with her. I was just so shocked that he grabbed her like that, I got up & sent him to his room where I made him look at me while I told him I never wanted to see him ever grab someone like that ever again! I was so mad that he did that?! He was so angry with her (I think she knocked his block tower over or was trying to take ones he wanted?) But I have never seen him lash out like that before.
So point of post... The facial movements then such a violent outburst? WTF is going on?!
eta this is Glenn not Evan. Glenn we are still working on whats going on with him in the sense of the pead thought, a0 normal & ignores people, b)asperges also or c)auditory processing disorder.
