Does your little brother verge more towards Aspergers or high functioning autism? My apologies as I should have been more sensitive in handling the subject as I know it touches many peoples lives deeply. Others have sometimes suggested that I might be Aspie as I have problems with facial recognition and with understanding certain types of facial expressions.
Just based upon the bits of autism I have seen, it seems almost like IXTJs with little to no Fi showing through-like for some reason it just never emerged. My son is an INTJ and I noted he was almost without emotional reciprocality until 16 months at which point he just started hugging me-like a switch flipped. I have wondered if in some, that switch just doesnt flip. How old is your brother?
