And that's what you'll actually see here as Nathan progressed throughout his teenage years.

Because to put it bluntly, Nathan and Linda's relationship started to get very, very rocky.

As he got into his teenage years, Nathan began throwing what sources claim were tantrums.

And I'm not sure if these were directly related to his Asperger's diagnosis or if they were something unrelated, but there was definitely a rift that was becoming a very big point of contention between Nathan and his mom.

Now, at first, things started off small.

Nathan was quick to get angry with Linda when he was overstimulated or whenever things weren't going exactly the way that he had planned or the way that he wanted.

That often caused them to get into these, what would be a minor argument, but that would very quickly turn very loud and very dragged out.

But then things started to escalate even more and they started to get violent.

According to one of Nathan's more distant family members, he once held another kid at school at knife point.

Although I have to say, I only saw this information as being reported from a family member, so I have no idea if there are actual incident reports out there about this, which I would think that would be the case for something this violent, but this was coming directly from a family member.

Now, another time, Nathan allegedly threw an entire batch of cookies at his mom, Linda, along with the plate that these cookies were on.

This was after she had accidentally burned the cookies a little bit.

So it was almost like the older that he became, the angrier that he got with her.

He felt like she coddled him too much and essentially gave him no freedom, yet she felt like she was just trying to take care of him and do the right thing.

And this was apparently an argument that they got into on more than one occasion.

So then finally, when he was 17 years old, Nathan decided to take things into his own hands and he chose to run away from home.

Now, this didn't last very long at all, despite his best efforts.

He actually made it pretty far and he was all the way in Virginia when he was found, but it was abruptly over.

Now, at this time in Nathan's life, it's when it really took a notable turning point because once he was found, Linda kind of assumed that things would just go back to normal.

Yet Nathan, on the other hand, he was fed up because in his mind, he wasn't going back to this life of just being constantly hovered over.
