What type of person/personality will he grow up to be/have? My 3yr old son eats his waffles row by row.?
He also likes to put things in a perfect line, such as instead of playing with toy cars, he’d line them up in a row like train carts. When playing with blocks he’d rather make a big rectangle out of it. He knew his ABCs, numbers, colors, shapes, and 24p jigsaw puzzle by 2. A very hard headed, stubborn boy, very resistent to change. I’m curious if any of you parents had a child like that and how did they turn out to be when they get older?
I don’t think he has Aspergers. He is somewhat shy, but he plays with his brother, laughing, chasing, etc. He also communicates very well.
He displayed all this before he was potty trained at about 3.
Oh I forgot to mention. He used to have a tantrum when his banana breaks, or chips his crackers or cookies. He’d rather not eat them. He is now much better only does that sometimes.
It’s way too early to tell if anything is “wrong” with him, in terms of minor social tendencies like being a control freak. For those mentioning Autism and Aspergers- you would KNOW if your child was living with either situation. Your doctor would have caught it by now because there are so many signs that have nothing to do with what the average person who saw “Rain Man” thinks about autism.
It’s just his personality, just one of the ways he’s experimenting and relating with his world. Most children express some kind of control things- wanting their toys “just so,” not liking their crackers broken, etc. Parents only worry when their kids are different from them. If you ate your waffles in rows (which I do, by the way) you wouldn’t even think twice about his behavior. There are probably some “controlling” things you do that you don’t even notice, and wouldn’t care if your child emulated. Just because you don’t share this one doesn’t mean he’s not normal. Maybe YOU’RE not normal, because, like I said, I eat my waffles in rows. =)
Relax, and let him be him. He may spend the rest of his life eating waffles row by row, but is that really going to affect anyone??
