[quote=Anonymous]OP here. What are some of ASD's children's interests? One psychologist told me that my DS doesn't have repetitive or perseverative interests because he is very creative and intellectual with his obsession whereas ASD children will just memorize facts and repeat them or do something repetitively. For example she said an ASD child who is obsessed with trains will make the train go in a circle over and over again. My DS who is obsessed with all things that are electrical will come up with novel ideas and features of a futuristic lap top or iPhone or satellite..but yes, he would love to design and play with these things for several hours a day. Not the entire day as he does have some other interests but for a few hours a day. What do you all think? Is the psychologist correct?[/quote]
