[quote=Anonymous]I'm the pp whose child has speech, OT and PT. For what you're describing, you may want to consider speech. Our son has made a lot of progress just by having the SLP work with him on verbal transitions, and how to not appear rude even if it is not your intent, etc. People could be having a discussion and he would cut in and randomly begin talking about his special interest. Obviously not the way to make friends and influence people. With help from the SLP he is working on waiting his turn to speak and how to ensure people understand you are topic switching. This was a huge weakness for him. He was also able to participate in Unstuck and On Target through his school and that almost completely extinguished his tantrums. It teaches the kids about flexibility, having a plan b and plan c, and concepts such as "big deal, little deal." It was extremely helpful for him. [/quote]
