[QUOTE="whatamess, post: 549695, member: 7664"] This is Aspi-like behavior. It's the lack of perspective. In his mind he wanted a cookie and you are thwarting him from his goal. Maybe you let him have a cookie the day before at the same time. Maybe he had planned to go eat that cookie for the last hour. He is probably wondering why you don't care about his feelings, why you don't care that he is hungry for a cookie, why you don't care that he planned out getting that cookie for the last hour. Please know, that as a neurotypical person, I can see both perspectives and just like kids on the Spectrum lack the ability to see the neurotypical, multi-faceted perspective, it seems quite often that neurotypicals just cannot accept the limits persons on the spectrum have in perspective-taking. It is not that they are trying to be bad, annoy you, etc, it is because they are concerned about themselves first-that is just how they are wired. It does not make them psychopathic. [/QUOTE]
