So, I have a question related to this: is this debating/arguing/finding loophole behavior a sometimes-characteristic of gifted kids? Because I have been attributing it to my son's autism spectrum disorder and his need for EXACT-ness, and black-and-white-ness; and the tone he uses due to his supposed decreased ability to recognize subtlety in language and communication..... I have been questioning his ASD diagnosis the more I learn about gifted behavior and could this be another example of how I am wrong about his ASD??? Nan
