My son has auditory disorder, so I’m more familiar than most. I’m used on doing mental somersaults to get what needs to be accomplished. It’s frustrating trying to explain to others about how TrogL’s brain is hardwired. This is frustrating for all concerned.

Teaching social skills is interesting it’s like herding cats of which neither of mine like to follow directions. This morning TrogL had to grab our male cat because I need home care (another thread) to help me do grooming. Also it was super hot and he slept with me all night which meant I didn’t sleep.

I’m often get caught in the middle with my friend & TrogL she doesn’t really understand that instructions need to one at a time. I used a lot of lists with my son which helped his morning and afternoon schedules.

It’s interesting at times…lol.
