Feel kind of frustrated. Was at a workshop about ASD this evening and mentioned that my son's (9yo, AS) monologues about his special interests were a particular issue for us at the moment as they prevented 'normal' conversation. The fact that he is an only child was raised and focused on by the convenor and this seemed to be implicated in relation to his monologuing. I feel that people make really unfair comments about only children and I'm sure these monologues are common to many children on the spectrum. Surely 'only children' are not the only kids with ASD who monologue about their interests??!
