Drop the Cups sounds like a phenomenal game. Very low permanent damage quotient.

Questions- what YouTube videos that DS watches constantly have you found yourself actually sucked into, despite your best/initial judgment?

Sesame street, the wiggles, Micha Gamerman's animated videos, some of Ari Goldwag's videos, Avraham Fried and MBD together. I am so sick of Kulam sharim which unfortunately is ds's current favorite video. Every time he watches it again, I either check imamother or play a game on my phone.

Would you say your kid is fairly easy, or somewhat challenging? I know that it's called a spectrum for a reason.

I know HFA kids who are nearly impossible to handle, and low functioning kids who are absolute angels - and everything in between.

Most people think ds is hard to handle. He's not a good sleeper and he's a compulsive hair puller. Nobody will ever call him an angel; however, having nobody else in the house makes it easier. He is very possessive over the couch and computer. As long as nobody sits on the couch or uses the computer, he's happy.

Hugs! No question, just hope that it's bye bye Covid in all its variants, with life long immunity after this.

The doctor said ds only has to quarantine a week since he's vaccinated and has no symptoms. I was hoping he would say 5 days, but a week is better than all the 24 day quarantines we did last year each time someone tested positive.

Would you consider learning a new skill or developing a talent while you have all this free time?

Not really. Every time I get off the recliner, I get my hair pulled. There's not much I could do while sitting in one spot.

Here's another video that I enjoyed, slightly more sophisticated than Sesame Street

That was a cute video. Do you know the song comes from the 12 days of x-mas (I think)? I hope the rest of quarantine goes well and without losing any more hair.

The CDC changed the rules today that vaccinated people only have to quarantine for 5 days instead of 10. Does that apply to you?
