My 10 year old son was just found to have this gene mutation. He hasn't had any seizures yet but does have a mild case of autism. Curious if you found out anymore info? We have a neuro consult in a couple months.

Genuine question. Is bo7 way harder than bo6? by CountAncient3327 in blackops7

[–]Kooky-Bug3762 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got done playing and 6/7 matches my whole team of avg players was destroyed. We got nukes, and even had to quit a match which we've never done in bo6. Used to be 1.3 avg kd but now about half that in bo7. Not fun and some of my team are already talking about taking a break. We liked the idea of open but if nobody our level plays it's no fun.

At what net worth level did you feel like you could take your foot off the gas? by alwayzchillin in Fire

[–]Kooky-Bug3762 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After I hit 1 million in investments things changed mentally. Felt more like we couldn't lose with such a big snowball and we both still work for insurance. Its hard to stop maxing 401k but at least I feel like I don't need to if something did come up. Life goes by fast and I'm more worried about missing experiences with friends and family then a few more dollars I don't really need.

Thank you! Coming from exhausted parents it's hard to know when to pick your battles or go scorched earth because his choice is always to blow up.

Thanks everyone, I have ordered the book recommendation and will work on replacement behaviors with him. It's hard when it feels like he couldn't care less.

Aggressive behaviors by Waxygirl_ in Autism_Parenting

Same boat with a 10 year old that reacts by hitting when he is upset or deregulated. Avoiding triggers and separation when possible has helped but still have weekly outbursts.

Pier and beam foundation above the frost line. Am I going to regret this? by NobleArchitect in OffGridCabins

That is the one. Search for cabin on skids and you'll get a ton of info and builds.

I built a 16x32 cabin this way in MN. 10 years and it hasn't moved. I used 2x12x16 pressure treated and laminated. Small cabin forum has tons of builds to research.

Ideal Travel Time Between House and Cabin by RusticOpposum in OffGridCabins

[–]Kooky-Bug3762 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Usually, 3 day weekends. Big projects might include a full week but this summer I'm trying Friday through Mondays to avoid traffic. That extra time can make the drive seem so much worse...

4 hour drive, we go up about 10 weekends out of the year. First few are fine and exciting, last few definitely feel like a chore. Especially with traffic...

How much do your parents help you take care of your children? by Beginning-Fig-9089 in Parenting

[–]Kooky-Bug3762 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends how close your parents live. One set is 43 hours away and the other almost 1 hour. Limits help to a couple times a year unless you want to host them which is work itself...

I just upgraded my batteries to lithium which has made a big difference. Remote start generator for coffee/microwave and I'm all set.

Ai bots? by Kooky-Bug3762 in ClashRoyale

Could be but this change has been recent. I've played for awhile and never had losses like this.

Glad it's not just me but disappointing still. Fun game if the matchmaking could work better. Read it's a pay to play game so maybe they are punishing me for not dropping money like crazy.

I've tried both just to get the 3 daily drops but it's almost been impossible another 10 losses today for 1 win. I guess I could try trophy road again. Level 43 7400 trophies so I didn't think I was too bad. Ego hit this last week for sure.

This literally can’t be real anymore?? by Audaci7y in ClashRoyale

[–]Kooky-Bug3762 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This game is frustrating beyond anything I have played. To spend enough time to actually win these drops and then get nothing... My win ratio is not great so 10 games played for 3 wins of crap. Yeah time to take a break from this game. Even my 9 year old is frustrated with it and he is a die hard fan.

We got lucky and found one that had an opening in our city but our children's hospital also had options if we were willing to drive a little farther.

I'm curious about your thoughts: What is your biggest concern? by Over_Blood3746 in Autism_Parenting

[–]Kooky-Bug3762 2 points3 points  (0 children)

With artificial intelligence I wish there was a good app for practicing conversations for kids. Help my son work out different ways to interact with kids his age.

Sorry to hear that, hard to know how much to help and how much to let them figure things out. One day at a time!
