The 1980s were the decade in which Christian Weston Chandler was born, under the name Christopher Weston Chandler (he wouldn't change his name until 1994). According to Chris, he had a lot of trouble growing up, and even coped with a prolonged episode of muteness.

Source material referring to the 1980s is scarce, and this article is mostly based on statements made by Chris at a later age, and on image material.

1980

The year Bob and Barbara got married.

Events of 1980

1981

The last year of peace for Bob and Barbara Chandler. Unluckily for them, the happy couple filled their time with lots of unprotected love-making. During the second half on this year, Barbara would be pregnant.

Events of 1981

1982

The year that began the entire sorry saga.

Events of 1982

1983

Chris has stated that in 1983, he was abused by his babysitter, "starting" his autism. On other occasions, however, Chris has said said he is aware of autism being a hereditary disease, making his "acquisition" of autism impossible.[8] We can nonetheless assume that the abuse Christopher suffered in 1983 was traumatic.[9]

Events of 1983

  • February 24 - Christopher's 1st birthday.
  • August - Christopher's autism allegedly "begins". He claims the reason was an evil babysitter named Roach, who locked him in a room. He becomes mute.[6]

1984

In 1984, Chris lived his life in Richmond as a mute toddler. He himself declares that he gave his parents a lot of trouble, and he screeched a lot. (Possibly indicating that his parents held this against him at a later age, and didn't really like caring for the autistic child they had created themselves.)

Events of 1984

  • This year - Chris first meets his childhood friend and gal pal, Sarah Hammer.
  • February 24 - Christopher's 2nd birthday.

1985

In 1985, Chris is still a mute, screeching toddler.

Events of 1985

  • February 24 - Christopher's 3rd birthday.
  • May 16 - Sonichu canon - Darkbind Sonichu is born.

1986

In 1986, Chris is still a mute, screeching toddler.

Events of 1986

  • February 24 - Christopher's 4th birthday.
  • November 13 - Sonichu canon - Bionic the Hedgehog is born.

1987

In 1987, Chris starts attending Greene County Primary School. It isn't known for sure if he attended pre-kindergarten before then.

Events of 1987

1988

In 1988, Chris starts first grade at Greene County Primary School, but he is still mute. Late 1980s, Chris joins the cub-scouts.

Events of 1988

1989

In 1989, helped by the language training at James Madison University, Christopher starts talking again whilst reading a Gobot package.[11].

  • Sometime - Chris has a dream that he has a daughter named Crystal, and is working in an office.
  • February 24 - Christopher's 7th birthday.
  • August/September - Chris enters second grade at Greene County Primary School.
  • December - The English conductor of the Regency Square Bear Band, Leonard Bearstein, mistakes Christopher's name for "Christian". According to Chris, this stuck, and would inspire his name-change in 1994.[12] (other sources state that this happened in 1992)
  • Christmas - Chris gets his second gaming system, a Nintendo Game Boy.
