Good morning everyone! Just fetching my youngest son at school. I'm glad that our weather today is good enough, no rain at all. We're just commuting and I'm not using my motorcycle if I'm with my youngest son to avoid accident. His still a toddler. A 4 year old. We're still waiting for his doctors check up. A psychologist. My son have an autism but don't know which category he belong. A hyper kid also. I didn't expect he had this situation but I'm still thankful to have him in my life. His a sweet kid that always hug and kissed me. What keeps you busy today? Days flies so fast and it's Monday already.

Aww... your son is a handsome young man. I hope it turns out to be mild autism that can be helped with medication. Good luck to him.

Thank you! My friend said it's maybe mild because he can speak fluently but lacked of focused. When you talked to him sometimes he didn't answer then sometimes he can.

@Jeansapphire You're welcome... Are you sure he's on the autistic spectrum? Maybe he's just ignoring you?

I'm not pretty sure but most of my friends tells that maybe he had a mild autism so better to see a doctor so that all my doubts will wiped out. His not ignoring me but he really apply it to others..so I feel there's something on him that I can't explained. Mothers instinct right?

I hate Mondays. It's good that you don't prefer your motorcycle when you are with your son.

@Jeansapphire I agree "Safety first" I hate Mondays because I feel lazy to go to work after an off.

I'm not so keen on Monday's either, its my big housework day upstairs and if we have had a busy weekend I don't feel like having a good clean. I don't work on Monday's

Why you hate Mondays? Safety first before anything else especially to my youngest son.

Hi kabayan! Finally you can post with a picture. When was your son diagnosed with autism? Have you had him check-up with a developmental pediatrician?

@Jeansapphire that is good to know you are very positive about this matter. Does your son has eye contact with you or anyone? What kind of behaviors do you see from your son that made you think he has autism? Sorry for the questions, I did not mean to intrude or anything. I have a son who is 14 years old and has mild autism.

Yes kabayan I did it yesterday. Thanks by the way. I'm still waiting for the sked and I just noticed it his behavior of being autism. Then his teacher also last year told me to bring my son to teacher Matet. The school for the special child here in my place but it's private school. She's the one recommend me to bring my son to a psychologist so she will know which category is my son belong.

It's okay to ask about that and I'm open minded too. In this matter we should accept the fact if our kids have an autism. He had an eye contact and he can speak also. The only thing he had is lack of focused. He didn't answer sometimes if we ask him but his talkative in his own and his hyper also. Oh your son has a mild autism and maybe my son is also like that. Don't know also and I'll just wait for his schedule to a doctor. For the meantime I bring to a school that can teach him and give some therapy while his at school.

@Jeansapphire ,he is 10 years old,was fascinated with TV program.Now i limited his TV time,just make him one hour TV each day.Watching TV too much will lower intelligence of kid in my opinion.

Thanks. Nowadays the kids have a different behavior. I didn't allow my son to used the gadgets even he didn't diagnosed yet with a doctor. His kind of different among to other kids and you can feel it. How old is your son?
