[quote=Anonymous]OP here. As far as parenting goes, we used to help him in the shower until age six. After age six he began to learn to shower himself. We taught him how to soap up, how to clean his body, how to shampoo, etc..We continued to towel dry him occasionally to help expedite bed time. He was just in one his bad moods that day and when he gets frustrated, he becomes more insistent on things. He has been dx has having ASD by one psychiatrist but that psychiatrist met with him for only 45 minutes and in our second appt did not remember his name or anything from his case. He told us in the first appt he was not ASD. In the second appt when he didn't even remember him, he told us he had ASD. So granted we saw several professionals to see what others thought also. Across the board everybody thought he had ADHD though. Recently his psychiatrist (new one) said he had symptoms of OCD. Granted ASD kids also show rigidity. But so do ADHD kids and OCD kids. Its hard to distinguish these.[/quote]
