So I am just paranoid, and Isaac has not been exhibiting a tendency to exaggerate or lie at school. So maybe the tales told at home are an example of the growing narrative in his head (in fact, he sounds as if he is reading from a text - including throwing in phrases like {"and G was mad at R", he said}.
Which brings me back to my age old problem, how to recognize an ASD behavior and a NT behavior. Or, better put, learning to recognize when my kids are JUST BEING KIDS, dammit! I really need a hobby.
I will talk about it to his Social Skills Teacher at the Artz center, of course, to make sure his exaggerations are not impeding on his communication skills.
