Your son, Eden, had autism. It was difficult to deal with, considering you had no help with him and you got overwhelmed just as easily as him. You loved him, though, and tried to be as patient with him as possible. Currently he’s two years old, having just learned to walk, he was curious, and with curiosity, came the very thing you dreaded. His form of sensory processing was taste and texture, so, when he was crawling, it was easy to keep things out of his path… Nowadays, he’d just climb, grab a bright colored object or shiny coin, and he’d put it in his mouth to taste or feel its texture in his mouth. This scared you, because he would climb just about anything, meaning that he would risk a wardrobe falling on him, or he would choke on something. So now, he was sitting in his high chair, kicking his feet and tapping the tray of his chair, sucking happily at his pacifier.
