    [QUOTE="DogwoodTree, post: 164128, member: 11539" Sidetracking slightly but about your comment on synesthesia, I understand what you mean. My daughter has Synesthesia and she never liked the name James, no offense whatsoever to anyone called James. She realized it was because she didn't like...

A recent example is a friend had started self harming which upset my daughter so...

    Any Aspies had bad experience learning to drive

    Hope I didn't offend you calling you a dare devil, I think I misunderstood you. I agree about the pressure thing. She does normally pick things up quickly.
