Thank you,
Sounds just like my 8 year old Grandson. Before his diagnosis I noticed he did not like morning routine changed and I for some reason just let him know if something was gonna change. He will hug me but not his little brother or Grandpa. He does not want anyone to touch him and hugging is hard for him too. (He has to initiate that most times).
He goes through these hyper mornings or evenings and at times lows that come from know where. He is very self focused on just him. What he wants and that's almost everyday. However, he will go in the bathroom and get a erasable marker and draw the whole family on the mirror, all of us holding hands and tell all of us he loves us. Its cute.
No Eye contact also.
Thanks for explaining what you can and cannot do. Very much appreciated.
