I thought I posted a response yesterday but it was lost.

Portia, he isn�t overwhelmed by emotions but they seem more intense or bigger. He is also very empathetic and quickly picks up on other people�s emotions and feelings too.

Eskes, he did go down a scary slide this summer when the park was almost closed and there were no lines. There�s definitely something too the pressure of having people waiting.

Flybear, I don�t care if he goes on them or not. He is the one who wants to do it. The embarrassment/being mad at himself is from having to walk back through everyone and knowing he just wasted a bunch of time. If he would just say at the outset, �I don�t like those type of rides/slides� it�d be fine (and easier).

Instead he just keeps trying to do them. And changing his mind at the last minute.
