My DS is almost 8. He performs well at school (although doesn't Apply himself when expected to do any kind of extended writing), behaves, has plenty of friends, is polite, loves sport.
The problem is at home/out and about. He is constantly, and I mean constantly, making noises. Gun noises, car noises, lightsaber noises, explosions, fighting noises, transformer noises, weird laughs, the list goes on. He often does the actions too. It doesn't matter how many times I ask him to stop. I didn't think too much of it, other then how maddeningly irritating it can be, I sort of assumed it was a boy thing and DP agreed.
Last night my mum took me to one side and suggested he has some sort of problem (Tourette's/adhd etc). She said she's been concerned for quite a while but thought I'd pick up on it. I was a bit upset; should I have picked up on this? Is there a problem? Feeling like the worlds worst mother this morning
