[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My autistic son (age 10) is super into money. We're upper middle class, but I grew up poorer, and my son sounds super entitled at times. He likes looking up fancy hotel rooms, tells me the cost of first class tickets is "worth it," and has even shown reluctance to eat food I purchase from Costco. We always fly coach, we stay at Marriott-level hotels, etc., but I think a few random certificates dad has redeemed for nicer hotel stays has whetted my kid's appetite. It's a fixation that's really upsetting me. I can generally tolerate the obsessions, but this one rubs me the wrong way. I want to respond positively, but I just don't know how to do that. [/quote] Can you redirect him to the stock market?[/quote]
