I have to say, I don't have that with either of my kids. If I praise my son (HFA) for doing well on a Math test, he will say usually say "That's because I'm a math genius". But he doesn't say it in a proud way, -just matter of fact -it is what is is. (I don't know
My DS, 13, is the same way. He knows EVERYTHING about EVERYTHING. He knows how to fix everything & gets really angry if you don't let him try, or you say you know how also. He does have a Dx of HFA.
He hates for his sister, 7, to do anything better than him & I think he resents her social skills & many friends.
He also does the "I'm stupid" " I'm a bum head" and things like that, but, overall he is a bragger!!!!
