[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 449396, member: 1514"] Wow...you really do have a mess dont you...sigh. Ok, I am going to try and think outside the box for you so just see if any of the stuff I throw out here is usable and if it can work, great! If not, then just toss it out and try something else. I so get the obsessional thinking stuff because my oldest is aspie and he obsesses over stuff. Over the years it has been tons of different things. Oddly enough, at one time it was old radios that he took apart. After he took apart my good radio, I fast discovered that I needed to go buy old ones that didnt work at the junk stores. I have no idea if you have the room in your living area like maybe a junk room or maybe even better a shed outside but maybe you could designate a place for him to have a bunch of old non-working TV's, radio's, computers, etc that have speakers in them that you get from places that toss stuff out. Let him take them apart. Give him books on speakers. Let him revel in his speakers. In his space. The rest of the house is speaker free. As far as the hitting, that is a problem. Does he have problem using his words when he gets very frustrated? Some people here have had luck with social stories. Look them up online and see if you think they would help. [/QUOTE]
