[quote=Anonymous]You can draw this for him as a comic strip. Use stick people of you are no artist. Have speech or thought bubbles for each person in the group. He is looking at it as a problem to be solved and to do it as efficiently as possible. The others are likely enjoying the social aspect and the fun of figuring things out themselves. So put those in the bubbles so he can see other points of view. Point out that everyone considers things differently, and his method may make him a top engineer some day, but other people have skills that benefit humanity, too. Then have the other people in the group have thought bubbles that say your kid is bossy and they don’t want to be his friend, so he gets the social implications of what he is doing. If his style is such a mismatch he should just do his own, then turn the paper over to signal he is done. He likely wants the recognition that he’s done, but he doesn’t need to say so out loud, because that seems like bragging, even though he probably just thinks he’s being factual. Put that in a thought bubble, too. He will understand the whole dynamic better with a comic strip.[/quote]
