Guest guest Posted June 11, 2003 Report Share Posted June 11, 2003 << I just mentioned it in a post not long ago - he HATES when i get a haircut. he was complained about a class having a different teacerh every week or two and it turned out it was teh very same teacehr, who liked to change her hair color often !!! >> Now I have a good reason to be the abnormal person that I am in that I have never colored my hair, and have never even considered it. LOL This may be way he was very hesitant when he took the tour with me when I joined the gym. He saw the other (way more buff) women and said he didn't want me to look like that. He expressed great distress when my husband wanted to shave off his beard after he lost a lot of weight. That did happen, but months after the inital desire. The buff mommy thing has *never* happened. Jackie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 11, 2003 Report Share Posted June 11, 2003 <<This website has the official psychological criteria for AS, as well as several other authored criteria. http://www.isn.net/~jypsy/whataspe.htm>> This was very interesting, and I am more and more thinking my son has AS as a base problem. One thing I had not read before was the face recognition problem. I did an engine search on the web and read of one women's story of her life with that problem. If I get my hair cut when my son is at school, sometimes he won't believe it's me picking him up. My other son can pick me out from across the school. I wonder if he has a touch of this? Last year, I got a note on a report card, I believe, that he did not know his classmate's names. I thought that was a little odd, so I got out his class picture and he named all except two. The two--he knew they were M and S, but didn't know which was which. Well, if they weren't standing side by side, I couldn't tell them apart either even though I frequently worked in the classroom. They weren't twins, but same nationality, same hair, some build, etc, both wore headbands or scarves most days. I wonder if he just was never able to find a distinguishing feature about either of them. He doesn't know everyone is his class this year, that doesn't surprise me. It takes all his energy just to make it through the day without falling apart. Jackie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My other son can pick me out from across the school. I wonder if he has a touch of this? Jackie, The official name for this is prosopagnosia. If you do a search engine search, you will find that there are websites on this topic - most are made by people who have the condition. In the cases of people who are born with it, it is most common in people with autism spectrum disorders. My son was telling me, from the time he was four years old, that he was faceblind. But, having no context from which to draw, I didn't get it. I just didn't know that there was such a thing as people who can't recognize faces. Certainly like most things, there are degrees of it. Some people who have it wouldn't recognize their own mothers on a crowded street. Others, will learn to recognize the people who are important to them. My son never learned the names of the kids in his class. Still doesn't. Kathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 11, 2003 Report Share Posted June 11, 2003 in FL, Is the old computer game The Incredible Machine still around? I bet your son would love it! You have to design a machine to blow out a candle. On the way, however, you may have to drop a bowling ball on a trampoline, run some gerbils on a treadmill, send some balloons in the air, and finally drop a tennis ball on a bellows handle which blows out a candle. My kids loved this. There is also a free form version where they can make up their own machines. But it's pretty old. I don't know if it's still around.
