what is normal behavior for anyone??

boys are boys.. they run, play, get dirty, sometimes are smart asses... love to NOT bathe or brush their teeth at certain ages.. love to argue about everything.. but not all are the same.. normal is a word for society to set standards, it does not mean it's ACCURATE...

definitely.. girls almost always mature before boys... Perfect example is dating and marriage..

boys do mature slower and each at their own pace, it's never at the same pace.. just like anything, learning to read, write, walk, talk.. all kids are different but there is a scale of "average" and if it falls far below that you may want to have him checked out but I'll bet it's not...

so him wigging out at the store cause there is too many people is normal?

telling you that there's too much stuff in his head and he feels like he's going to explode?

walking up to a kid at school who looking at a comic book and asking him if its a playboy?

No, I don't have that at my house nor is he allowed to watch voilent,crude shows,movies or cartoons

well that's where more information is helpful... It could be that he doesn't like crowds and that he has too many thoughts going on at once... But in all honesty, I would take him to a dr. that is a little different than most children of any age... It could be that he has a low stress level and can't deal with it like others might be able to...

I hate crowds and sometimes my mind is a flurry with all that I have to do, but I'm an adult a child shouldn't have that many worries... Why most of us wish we were kids again...

Keep us posted.. Prayers your way...

I'm sure it's nothing serious.. Kids get all kinds of things in their heads they're resilient but as unaware as some think.. Things bother them and they think things are their fault when they're are not...
