[quote=Anonymous]I have an autistic 4 years old. We struggle with rigid thinking. He, for instance, likes to pretend he is a character or animal. These pretend plays are always on, he does not allow us to call him other than this character/animal and can go on for months. He gets very upset and has meltdowns frequently if we mistakenly call him by his name. He is also very rigid about certain routines, lights on at bedtime, etc... I´m exhausted and need advice on how to promote more flexible thinking.[/quote]
