I remember when my son was about 4 or 5 and we were walking through an airport and he had to use the bathroom. So I took him in the Ladies room with me, and he used the bathroom. Little did he know that the toilet would make a huge NOISE and flush on its own. He became hysterical, and I couldn't figure out what was wrong. We didn't know at that time that he had Aspergers, so today, that explains it all. But today, at age 11, he still won't go near those huge sounding toilets. So parents, take notice of what may bother your child consistently. Especially if it has to do with a texture of clothing or a food, a sound. May God Bless all parents dealing with this difficult situation.
