: Some things, like sensory problems, are pretty easy to describe (just imagine that the "volume knob" on your senses is malfunctioning). Other things aren't so easy to describe. For example, with one severely autistic girl I work with, I absolutely understand what she is doing when she arranges plastic animals and ties them up with thread (to the extent that I know what the next "move" will be, which is why she will not let me join in), but I can't find a way to describe it in words - I end up jumping around and saying vague and unhelpful things like "ordering the world" and "it's to think with".
.I have just read these messages, and am anxious to write and converse with an autistic. My son is 6, the message about you working with a girl and you understand about the plastic toys and tieing the up......my son's play constist of lining stuff up and always tieing toys up either by string, ropes, belts just whatever he use to tie things together and hang them from different objects. Can you please explain this to me. If possible I would like it in email:"a"> (Don't know if I know how to get back to this message board.) Thanks for your time.
