How does 'you might be in trouble' become a question? If you are offering him a statement or a rhetorical question then there is nothing to answer. I'm not literally saying to him "you might be in trouble". A you-might-be-in-trouble question would be a question that he thinks indicates that he is i...

Thank you zghost, that was very helpful. Thank you for putting yourself out there. Any hints as to what might work for a kid who is "frozen"? Just have to wait until he can sort it out?

I was precocciously verbal and read early and A LOT. I was in gifted classes. We moved often so I was usually "the n...

My son is 9 and has ADHD and a diagnosis of PDD(NOS) when he was 5. His doctor now thinks he has improved to the point that he looks more like someone with Aspergers. Anyway, I have a question about his tendency to not answer some questions. I cannot determine whether he is freezing up or is being e...
