My dd is 16 y/o with autism. I don't know what a savant is capable of doing but my dd since she was 2 y/o she has been able to know things that if we were not christians we would call phycic. I don't believe in that at all but its kind of hard to overlook.
I'll give you 2 stories
1. When she was 2 y/o. she was very much asleep in her room with the door closed. My mom bought some candy, so to keep my dd away from it. She hid it way up in this one cabinet over the fridge. behind some pans. Well a couple of hours must have passed when my dd woke up, She started asking for candy my mom asked her "Why do you think I have candy?" My dd led her to the fridge area and pointed to the very cabinet they were hidden in.
2. This last X-mas while she was at school I decided to buy her, her presents. Mind you my dd is not into dolls but I decided to get her a Brats doll b/c since we were going to visit relitives, she has a couple of cousins who have Brats Dolls. I never planned on buying the doll till I got to the store. As soon as I came home I wrapped the gifts. I put extra padding on the doll box to throw her off gaurd. Well while we were visiting my dad. My step-mom pulled me into a room and asked me if I bought dd a doll b/c my dd had told her "My mom bought me a doll." the box was still in my car unopened. I tryed not to let her go near it till the time came to open the gifts.
now I don't know what to think of this at all. My mom told me that my dd (just to throw this in, I'm pregnant) told my mom that I was going to have a girl. Though its still too soon to find out. My mom is convinced she is right. I'm just dying to find out that she is wrong.
Everyone that comes in contact with my dd tells me "You know nothing gets past your daughter"
My husband thinks she is just overly observant, I'm wondering if he is right. But then she can walk into a strangers house and know exactly where the cups are and what drinks they have, she will flat out ask, " Can I have ......?" they just look at me and ask "how did she know I had that?"
Any suggestions?
