Autism

[Mymapuddlington]

Hi, my son had a diagnosis of autism with pda years ago.
He’s now 11 and still acts and thinks like a toddler 90% the other 10% is repeating what adults/older kids say so comes across as more grown up.

Is this usual for autism? I’m an autistic adult and I’m struggling to figure this out.
Could it be something else or is it his autism?

Sounds familiar to me, my son is 10 and described as 'very mature' by his teacher but most of the time at home he behaves much younger, plus we get 'playground chat' repeated over and over which at the moment is difficult because they are doing sex education at school.

Yes sounds very typical to me.

Ds is 7.5, acts / behaves like he’s 2 years old most of the time but then does the exact same repeating things he’s heard and I look twice sometimes as he sounds SO grown up with some of his one liners.

Thank you, it’s strange isn’t it, like they’re sometimes 2 and sometimes 14!

I filled the paperwork.that school has done doctors.sent it off just waiting a few weeks up to 4 months i was told got wait as my son getting worse only thing makes.him happy and remember everything is his PC but cause he was banging and smashing things iv taken his PC out of his room in the lounge now but iv stopped let him have screen time everyday so we let him have screen time every 4 days for 2 days and not allowed if not done homework and a shower family members say its too much I should allow him have screen time every other day aswell a shower every other day need advice if I'm too strict on screen time every 4 days for 2 days or should I do as my family say every other day there are days I struggle but I have restricted him off any over 18 sites cause something call discord is on it apparently won't let him on and he don't understand the dangers it's a battling day to day with my son just need advice and other mums going though the same thing thankyou.
