[QUOTE="Ktllc, post: 568241, member: 11847"] Big Hugs. Reading your post reminds SO MUCH of V. He is always rigid, but at times it goes to rigid to EXTREMELY rigid (even his teacher sees et and I don't think she has yet experienced what extreme can be for V). I struggle with how to deal with it as well. I try to stay rational and explain that "he will be fine" even if things don't exactly happen the way he thinks it should. difficult child 2 being a teen, could you maybe talk with him about being rigid and hopefully help him to become self aware? Work with him when he is calm and create a visual you can use to help him be more aware of it? I'm using a stop sign with V to help some when he is persisting on an idea. I or his brother can say stop a million times but it does not sink in. When I use the sign he stops right away. A knowledgeable therapist could be a great tool. Of course the trick is to find someone who truly understand that difficult child 2 does not (yet) have a good handle on his rigid thinking. [/QUOTE]
