help & advice not sure if there is something wrong?

[spudpudding]

just wondered if anyone can help me my ds is 7 years old and doesn't have learning difficulties but has always been fussy. He has experienced a lot of social problems at school and although he has friends he does struggle. He also reacts to sounds smells bright lights and clothing labels. He has a very limited diet and on a recent visit to grandmas everything smelled and tasted wrong.

The thing is should I do anything? family all think that if we can cope that I should just carry on, apart from reception class the teachers at school have not said anything, he is not disruptive and quite bright.

When I spoke to health visitor, she said he was fussy and sensitive.

any opinions??

thank you

Yep, you could be describing my Dd3 too. She has recently been diagnosed as having sensory processing disorder and she also has Asd. She is very able and well behaved at school but she does have lots of problems.

The difficulties have got more visible as she has got older. There is a book called the highly sensitive child as well which I have heard is quite good although I havent read it myself.

Good luck
