[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 326183, member: 1991"] The difference here is, this kid has AS. That tells me that the "I'm the Mom and I said so," will backfire badly. If he says he's good at reading labels and using the information, then accept this. You're getting Wii Fit? Great! It will do a great deal of what you're trying to do, but trough the medium he's already obsessed with. It's what difficult child 3 does, he gets me onto the thing too. But if you can upgrade, get Wii Fit Plus. As an u[grde it's not much but it gives you a lot of the stuff unlocked immediately, plus there are other sophistications. Also, get Wii Sports in various forms, they also get you up and active. It's huge fun as spectator sport, so it boosts social skills. Sit down as a family to play it, take turns with everyone doing their daily check-in and fitness test, then get out the Wii Sports and everyone go ten pin bowling together! Or have a game of tennis. I like the balance games on the Wii Fit, but be aware, they are more tiring than you would think. Watching novices try to head the ball in soccer is hilarious fun! Enjoy! Marg [/QUOTE]
