[QUOTE="pigless in VA, post: 710462, member: 11832"] I see this with children at school who have autism. They fully expect all the adults around them to immediately [B]fix[/B] whatever is bothering them. Many of them hate fire alarms. They want us to make it stop that hideous noise. We can't and sometimes they get angry about it. We had a school-wide contest. A different classroom won the prize of dinner at a restaurant. One of our students was insanely jealous and hit a bunch of people that day, because our class did not win. I also believe that children with autism even when high functioning, have great difficulty finding the words to express how they feel about anything. My own son, who has never been described as being on the spectrum, has always been extremely angry. I call it his default emotion. Anything doesn't go the way he wants it to - instant anger. I found this site by googling "oppositional defiant disorder." At least the parents here understand what it is like to have an extremely difficult child to raise. [/QUOTE]
