[quote=Anonymous]I didn’t read all the posts— they started out being fairly unhelpful. I am sort of in the same boat with my 11 yo. Not ASD but quirky. Also, we spent the first part of his life living in another country, so I think he is even more clueless about some norms. I let most things go but when I think he’s doing something that would be talked about for months (like bringing a big stuffed animal to school) I tell him it’s inappropriate for school, that it might be something other kids would think was “too young” but that our family and good friends love and appreciate all his hobbies and interests. He has been able to take in that distinction and be a little annoyed by it but not too upset. I also really entice him to be interested in age appropriate things. We’ve gone hard encouraging his love of soccer and some age-appropriate shows and music. [/quote]
