It does make sense to interact with things more tactilely. Hehe Jana gets like that too, always needing to touch things. It does make sense to interact with things more tactilely.

I have to admit, I saw a little bit of myself in certain parts, although obviously not to the extent that she has. One thing that Jason absolutely HATES about me is that every time we go shopping, I have to touch every single thing I'm looking at. Just looking at a shirt or a blanket isn't enough because I really haven't experienced it until I've interacted with it in that way. So I can absolutely relate to that part of her explanation.

I have an autistic cousin who from my point of view just squeals and screams a lot. He has been more 'interactive' as he has grown up though apparently, but I have not had much to do with him.
