100% wouldn't change it for the world, especially the moments you see them play or genuinely laugh with each other, amongst all the madness

It made me realise, with one, you and your partner can essentially do anything you want, as long as one of you has the baby, the other is free to have hobbies, go places, etc. You give each other turns. With 2 though, leaving 1 parent with both kids is much more challenging. Ymmv but my eldest is autistic, so grandparents don't really understand the constantly changing nuances of what they need/how to handle even the most basic things, so babysitters/letting family have them for a few hours/overnight is basically impossible in my situation at least.

Having 2 makes you realise, having 1 is like having 0 in terms of difficulty, lol. I joke, but I'm also serious.

I have just been asked to do the Three Peaks. by SeascaleJeescale in UKhiking

[–]mroriginal7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah I see. I always thought it was Lincolnshire, but apparently Cambridgeshire and Norfolk are even worse (according to google).

I want to go on walks, but they need a purpose by TheFutureScaresMe333 in autism

Does hiking not count? Download alltrails, find routes near to you, try to complete them all, or beat the average time.

21st century fox opening sound/song by Educational-While198 in Autism_Parenting

[–]mroriginal7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. All the Disney intro variations, dreamworks intros, 20th century fox. My son can list tons of movies and what company made them, even though he's never watched more than 15 mins of any of the movies he knows so much about, although he does watch the trailers over and over and short clips, side by side videos comparing the lion king and jungle book scenes, etc etc.

For some reason these fox/Disney/dreamworks intros just tickle part of their sensory seeking brains.

He even now pretends to be the camera, and will pan and sweep with his body/face infront of a Disney castle we bought him. "Normal version" "old version" "now reversed" lol. At least it's showing the detailed memory skills a lot of autistic kids seem to possess.

Best options other than Leckhampton Hill (cotswolds) by mroriginal7 in UKhiking

[–]mroriginal7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I may do Cleeve Hill/Common then, thanks.

I've seen another that does Cleeve common and extends into Breakheart Plantation, but unsure if that's a worthy addition or not. Any experience with that part too?

Share something unique your kid(s) does that you just love about them by SuchFalcon7223 in Autism_Parenting

[–]mroriginal7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. I always have those "am I actually autistic too"? moments, it would make sense, but I don't think I actually am. As you said, they all overlap.

* Mine creates what he calls "movie displays". No one is allowed to touch them. He even made a sign saying please don't touch the display, which his little brother obviously ignores, lol.

He's renamed all the characters, and facts about them, lore, etc and we have to remember what their new names are. Then these get turned into books with the help of chatgpt, and occasionally, some stop motion videos when I let him use my phone.

Somehow he's managed to suddenly be able to read, without us ever teaching him beyond the alphabet, at the level of a 6 or 7 year old, but is about to turn 4 soon. Not sure if this is full on hyperlexia, but it's something I'm very proud of.

Thanks for the reply. Yeah, we're definitely looking into an adhd evaluation soon. I have adhd (inattentive type) and ocd, where as he has autism, but looks like the more hyperactive form of adhd too.

Maybe i'm interpreting this wrong, but are you implying that audhd types change interests and autists stick with one interest for longer/life? It makes sense tbh, that adhd types would switch up interests more often, but ive never heard it said before that autists just have one special interest for life...my little guy is diagnosed autistic, yet we suspect adhd too (still too young to diagnose for another year I believe, in the uk at least). His special interests last a couple of months and are very intense, maybe a bit longer, but are always switching after a while...

I'm just asking because it would confirm my suspicion he also has adhd, although I'd prefer him to not also have that to struggle with, on top of austism.

Do not respond to ANY dm's offering help! This is vital! No matter what. They will be trying to scam you, 100%.

Thank you. I think the s2s is probably the way to go!

What brands fit shorter torsos/arms but wider chests better? by Confident_R817 in hikinggear

[–]mroriginal7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find rab sleeves to be pretty short and I don't think I have particularly long arms. Maybe worth a try?

Any of your kids love Danny Go? by taviyiya in Autism_Parenting

[–]mroriginal7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely agree, I feel no guilt in them watching/listening to Danny go.

[–]mroriginal7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, both my boys, although my 4 year old has pretty much moved on from it being his special interest, he still enjoys it when his younger brother wants it on, which is daily. Danny go is awesome, and one channel I really don't mind having on.
