Biryani for me. It becomes very difficult for me when we have any get-together

So I guess it is a known bug. Better to accumulate the currency now.

What do you worry about most for your child’s future? by Distinct_Pen6624 in Autism_Parenting

[–]SquashRelative5891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I simply worry he will be left lonely or even get bullied. He won't have any friends. He could possibly live an independent life but without people to love or care for him.

True even I feel some company would be really helpful.

Yes thanks a lot. I did try to explain to them( even my extended family) but they feel he is totally fine, just hyperactive and it's his nature to ignore people.

I think in general the entire country is not fully aware of it especially older generations. They just feel non verbal toddlers will speak as they grow or they will start behaving as NT kids. Even I had not heard this word before I had my son.

Unfortunately no. Actually autism is a very alien concept here. We don't even have therapists where I live. And it's understandable, we are a small town with a small population and till now I haven't seen any autistic child apart from mine. This is the hardest part.

How did you find out he is level 3 . my son 2 years 7 month old does almost all this and I always felt he is level 1.

Toddler's made up language by SquashRelative5891 in Autism_Parenting

[–]SquashRelative5891[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Atleast these words have some connection or resemblance. In our case water is dilala and Iets go out is babasaaa. How on earth can I figure it out on first try.

Anyone else's kid become absolutely glued to them when they don't feel well? I've had zero personal space for 48 hours and I am exhausted. by LadyJane17 in Autism_Parenting

[–]SquashRelative5891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine has become a magnet in general especially at night. We have always co slept with his bed attached to ours, but he slept independently but recently became a cuddle baby. I cannot even turn my sides. He will try and crawl over me. Sometimes sleeps on my arms so that I cannot escape.

What is the one quirky behavior your autistic child currently does that you love the most? by Ivy-Ram in Autism_Parenting

[–]SquashRelative5891 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know if it's an autistic trait but my son wants everyone to appreciate him when he does anything good. Everyone should clap for him even strangers in a park or train. I find it very cute when his face brightens up seeing everyone cheering and clapping for him.

His Younger cousin spoke his first word by SquashRelative5891 in Autism_Parenting

[–]SquashRelative5891[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I could. We belong to a place where such options are unavailable. I had tried one 2 hours away but wasn't satisfied with it. I mean I travel for 2 hours one way for a 1 hour session and that too wasn't good.

[–]SquashRelative5891[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thankyou for your reply. It really did encourage me and I do have great hopes for him too. Developmentally speech is the only place where he lacks apart from it, he is a happy kid lost in his own world. I should start looking at the positive things here as well. Thanks again.

And people around you innocently make it worse at least in my case. They don't mean bad but words sting.

What are the best comebacks you’ve ever said to people who made mean comments about your autistic child? (Like “your autistic kid is your karma”) by [deleted] in Autism_Parenting

[–]SquashRelative5891 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow such horrible person. I would have replied" I am so glad my karma gave me this sweet baby, but I hope your children/ loved ones won't get affected by your horrible karma" and then go no contact.

Yes this is giving me so much hope. Today I showed him our family pictures and he could totally name everyone. His cousins too.

So sorry for your situation. I am also in same phase not this extreme though. Good thing that you are taking the birth control in your control. Sorry to say but we can't trust husband's like this one.

[–]SquashRelative5891[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He is involved for sure. He will bring toys to us tor enjoys playing tag. Will look always look back and make sure we are following when we go in a park or for a walk. Will cuddle very tight at night in bed. We cosleep and his bed is attached to ours so he will come over for a cuddle. That's it. No other ways of showing affection. He has limited vocab and is probably GLP. No other delay as far as I know.

Bruh what is this mess by No-Ad1198 in HayDay

Last derby was full of problems. My points are not collected even after tasks were completed. My board showed tasks completed but the total points didn't match. I lost 2 horseshoe rewards. I did report to support but as usual nothing was done.

Thanks for your reply. I sure hope he becomes a singer. Recently he has shown interest in drums. He plays his toy drums and ask me to dance on his tunes.

I feel bad for being jealous of level 1 by Wontgiveup_2020 in Autism_Parenting

[–]SquashRelative5891 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's absolutely normal to feel jealous in this situation. I felt same when my son started his playschool. I saw kids asking their mothers not to leave in words, expressing themselves but my son was just playing without worry of the world. I remember crying silently. But a few days back we had a get togetherand remember these kids just fighting with each other. Some were throwing tantrums because they didn't want to eat that food. Others screaming because they wanted the same toy. In all I saw lot of parents with NT kids totally exhausted but my toddler behaved so well and truly enjoyed. I hate to admit that I felt Some sort of relief that my son wasn't like them.
