We were watching Big Bang Theory. The boys love that show. They both really like Sheldon. AT asked me "Mommy, why is Sheldon so weird and loves science so much". I stopped and decided it was time to tell him the truth.
"AT, Sheldon loves science the way you love Mario Bros. You know how you can go on and on and on about it, Sheldon does the same with Science. Sheldon has something called Asperger's, which is very close to what you have. It is on the Autism range. Nothing will cure it, but you can work with it and Mommy and Daddy and Yamma and Opa will help."
he started crying. My heart ripped from my chest. I did then show him the new episode of Girl Meets World which dives into the topic as well. By the end he was ok with it, but still. :crying:
