7 Little Johnstons Fans Have Theories On The Subject
This observation from a 7 Little Johnstons fan recently generated some interesting discussion among TLC fans, with many offering their perspective on the topic. It turns out, many commenters are in agreement about a different possibility that has nothing at all to do with being on the spectrum.
In fact, the vast majority of commenters think Alex’s behavior has a lot more to do with the way he has been babied by Amber Johnston and Trent Johnston than anything else.
- One 7 Little Johnstons fan said: “Even tho Emma and Alex are the same age, Alex has been babied by the whole family.”
- Another TLC viewer agreed, saying: “Especially considering that they adopted Alex as a baby and Emma as a 4 year old. I can see how they may have babied him more bc of this reason.”
- A third fan chimed in, saying: “I see what you mean but I think it’s more of a result of him being babied by amber and Trent and not treated like his own age.”
The consensus seems to be that Alex’s behavior has more to do with how he was raised than anything else. Either way, it’s an interesting topic to think about.
