Guest guest Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 Hi all. I am working mom to middle school twin boys, one Asperger, one NT. This looks like a neat list. Our current behavior issues... Personal hygiene is a big issue. The boy thinks taking a bath about once every two weeks is about right--yes, that is what he told me in all seriousness when I asked recently. We are realizing that there are also OT issues involved here though. Extremely rude and disrespectful outbursts towards family members are also a big issue. " But it's true! " He thankfully has enough self control to at least not say anything at school, although school staff notice angry body language. I'm always looking for positive ways to get my son to do things he doesn't want to do. For the most part, I try to give him plenty of adjustment time and that helps as much as anything, but it makes it take a long time to do things with him and excludes a lot of activities. Forewarning doesn't seem to help much with him. Any tips and tricks welcome. I'm sure this is familiar to many of you. Looking forward to getting to know you all.
