[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 361669, member: 1550"] My Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) son is the same. You can't change plans or transition activities without fair warning...he is getting help for that, but it's his natural inclination to have trouble with changes so it's a tough one...and an Aspie trait (again, not saying she has it). You say she's a social butterfly. Does she know how to socialize appropriately? One can be very friendly, but pretty clueless about socializing and still be on the spectrum. Also, our kids do not normally respond to conventional parenting. We usually need to try to get inside their heads and think outside the box. Often, they don't care about natural consequences or loss of privileges, or they CARE but don't change (or CAN'T change) anyway. [/QUOTE]
