How is a dog supposed to bend the arms and legs around - it is bendable like they were back then? . Doug was too young to play with them, but the other two used to act out little plays with them. Nowadays the toys talk by themselves - not nearly so good for one's imagination. How is your bloke doing BTW? He looks fit. Best regards.

Actually, we didn't even test him for that because the psychologist spent enough time with him to decide that he wasn't autistic...just has a few symptoms. She did do a cognitive test and he does show about a cognitive delay, which does indicate a learning disability. He starts kindergarten next year, so we will probably learn more then about his delay. Did your son have any learning disabilities?
