Guest guest Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 We have an Aspie son (12) and a son with Bipolar (10) and then a daughter (8) with Anxiety Disorder thrown in to the mix. AS son starts an argument out of EVERYTHING that comes out of his brother's mouth. I'm pretty sure he doesn't mean to start an argument. Tonight it was this: DD (8) put her chin on top of the water pitcher, and I said, " don't put your mouth on it. " Son (AS) says, it is not your mouth. BP son is trying to defend my use of the term and AS son gets even more into it by saying, " so if I say 'my mouth,' I could really mean 'my foot?' " Obviously, AS son is trying to get us to use the correct terminology, but can't let it go, even after I have walked away from the table, annoyed that everyone is arguing, and BP son is obviously getting very escalated and even yelling. This is so frustrating. I'm having a bad day ~ just really weepy all day, and then the kids came home and things got worse. Leah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
