[QUOTE="Pookybear66, post: 197372, member: 5957"] Wow, you all are so great. Thanks for the support and ideas! I got the book yesterday and have been fascinated while reading it. My ds is very much as described by the "inflexible-explosive" characteristics. He does seem to have a problem with "inefficient thinking" sometimes he goes to extremes when you use an example. For instance, if we say something mild like "I don't like your behavior" he turns around and says "oh so you want to get rid of me/kill me/etc" something so absurdly extreme that it bothers me terribly. This book seems like it will help change OUR behavior in how we deal with this which may be the most helpful thing. He really is a sweet boy but just frustrated and frustratING sometimes. About the reading, he does NOT like to read at all. He doesn't get how the words sound out a lot of times. He forgets in the minute you remind him of the sounds to what the next time he sees it again 3 words later. It is again the frustration factor. It's too frustrating to do it so he chooses not to, instead of learning how to deal with it appropriately. So, I may get a full workup for him, but in the meantime I think the best thing for him is to teach him how to deal better with the world being a frustrating place. [/QUOTE]
