My child has special needs and I feel for this boy and his grandparents, who were probably brought up in the "mental illness is taboo" culture and will never want to talk to you about his issues. They may also be in denial themselves.

Tell him firmly that he is not allowed to walk into your garage or your house unless he is invited to come in. Be specific, in case he needs specifics. Always be kind. You can be firm, you can be direct, you can avoid him, but please be proactive and tell your children to always be polite, never mean and report to you any instance of other kids being mean. I've seen so many children tease or bully SN kids because they didn't know how to handle differences. Kids need to be explicitly told these things. My neighbor's son bullied mine all throughout 3rd grade until I put a stop to it.

[b]If he starts behavior like stopping a group game outside, one of the kids needs to tell his grandparents, and they need to come out and redirect him. [/b]

Doesn't sound like the grandparents will do anything.

So, OP, that's when you send him home and tell Grandma that your kids are done for the day.

Do they try playing what he wants when they are finished what they're doing?[/quote]
