[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op - he doesn’t want to be read to (that would be easy) he wants a full made up story. Even if we went somewhere and get home super late [/quote] Yes. This is the kind of ostensibly charming but ultimately wearying demand my auDHD child demands as well. She’s 11. She wants us to play prescribed roles in an elaborate pretend scenario. There’s little I can do to quell the request. It finally seems to be fading a bit as she moves further into adolescence but it was one of our clues that she was on the spectrum since it persisted so long and she was so rigid about it. You’re right to be exhausted by it. It’s a lot. You don’t have to do it. Ideally he’d begin inventing stories himself. You have my sympathies. Creativity on demand without appreciation is exhausting.
