[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 271898, member: 3419"] Yes, at least in our case. We had to go after our difficult child and not let up, though. One thing the therapist suggested was to take an offending item, (say, if he stole an Ipod) and place it on the kitchen table every night in front of him and make him sit there for 1/2 hr until he breaks down. He said it would take 3 wks to get him to break. (I won't go into what the item really was but it doesn't matter; this is a good project.) It took 2 nights. Now, remorse in an Aspie is often more of a manifestation of anxiety. So you may get picking, [COLOR=#0f2637][FONT=Verdana]repetitive[/FONT][/COLOR] kicking, rocking or an outright explosion. But there should be something in there that says, "Error!" like in a computer. with-our son, we knew we had him when the tips of his ears started turning red, and he began tugging at the hair on his forehead. Other times, I will have a long conversation with-him when he is in a receptive mood. Which isn't often. ;) It's like there's this window that opens and if you don't check it out, you'll miss it. Interesting, the varied responses here. Keep in mind that this is a spectrum disorder. [/QUOTE]
