[QUOTE="slsh, post: 576984, member: 8"] My thought would be the sensory input - not only the sound of it, but also the thrummm of material tearing in his hands and the sensation of it ripping. Does that make sense? Are you sure he thinks he's hilarious, or is he just really enjoying the tearing sound/sensations? Have you tried substituting things he *can* tear? Old receiving blankets, the flannel kind (or whatever it was called), would be my first choice, especially if they're older/more worn. You'd get a really good rrriiip out of it, plus the sensation of the flannel tearing would be really satisfactory, I'd think. If it's a stimming kind of thing, not sure you can stop it, can you?? My experience with- autistic kiddos is pretty limited, but the few I've come into contact who did stimulant... nothing on this earth could stop them. [/QUOTE]
