[QUOTE="'Chelle, post: 308536, member: 1161"] My difficult child had (has) this thing with pens. Now it's more just likes to collect them. For the touching thing, perhaps get him a funky pen that has different shape & textures on it (feathers, bumps etc.) Good to hold and touch etc. Only downside is if you get a click pen. My difficult child used to like to click it in and out, which just added another noise to the repertoire. The whole personal space thing is something that takes a while to work on, pretty much showing/explaining how close is too close to others. I think they're just oblivious to how close to anything they are, and don't get the same uncomfortable feeling of being too close to others. [/QUOTE]
