RE: Hi everyone! New person here

[Guest guest]

my daughter is 11 and she is about 5' 4'. but we are a very tall

family

>>> singerviv@... 02/28/07 10:47 AM >>>

Hi, I'm Viv. I was referred to this group from a parent in another

online group. Thanks for " ok-ing " me!

My daughter, Sue, is on the autism spectrum; considered high

functioning. She's just 8 years old but is very tall (5'2 " ) and into

puberty. Poor kid's not just the tallest kid in 3rd grade, she's the

tallest kid in her school! I feel sort of lost with her at times.

It's really hard to remember she's just 8 years old, with many of the

characteristics of a 6 year old! LOL!

Anyone else have really tall, big kids? Her brother is 9 years old,

has HF Aspergers and is almost a foot shorter.

I'm so looking forward to conversing with the group.

Thanks!

Viv

Hello Viv!

Wow that is tall at 8 years old. Have you taken her to an endocrinolgist to

get some testing on her glands? How much does she weigh?

Welcome to the group! These people here have been my 2nd family. They have

helped immensely. Tell us more about Sue. We love to hear.

Hello Viv,

My daughter is also very tall. She's going to be 11 in one month

and is soooo much taller than even alot of adults. If I had a nickel for

everytime someone commented on how tall she is, we'd be rich. I also have

to stop and remember that although she's almost as tall as me, she's only a

little girl. Sometimes, I forget and try to give her more information than

she can absorb. The good side of being so tall, I hope, will be that people

(boys in particular) may be intimidated by her size and think twice about

taking advantage of her down the line. Her Dad is 6'3 " !

Abby is 9 and she & I are both 5'ft and weigh the same. is tall-6'1.

We took Abby to an endocrinologist and everything came back fine. I think the

hormones in the food are playing a big factor with a lot of our girls.

Hey Viv, welcome. Have you had her checked for precocious puberty? I

just posted something about testosterone, Dr. Geier has found some

girls with autism have too-high testosterone which in turn triggers

other hormones to go overboard to try and counteract, makes early

puberty.

So strange, seems kids with autism are either abnormally small or

abnormally large. Does anyone have a very typically-sized child?
