[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 342987, member: 3419"] Ah yes, the fire thing. Our difficult child got over it relatively quickly, with-the time-honored method seen in books, and recommended by our therapist, that we buy an aluminum bucket, fill it with-water, and have difficult child sit outside, supervised, and light 2,000 matches. I don't think he even got to 100. I kept an eye on him after that, but also gave him fire-lighting tasks, and watched him from around the corner. I told him to light the fire in the LR, or light the candles b4 a party. I wanted to see if he would play, and if so, how much. In fact, he was scared and asked me to help him! Go figure. He's much better now, but there have been a cpl or small setbacks. Take heart. [/QUOTE]
