hi there,
im a support worker for an autistic man in his early fifties, im trying to figure out a better way of trying to stop him obsessing over his neighbours movements, he often waits on the pavement waiting for them to go to work etc his neighbours are quite tolerant but thats not always the case and he gets confused sometimes.
Ive explained many times that this behaviour isnt appropriate but it just doesnt get through
any thoughts or ideas?
does the neighbor ever engage directly with your client?
What is their history?
Have you and he gone to other places together?
This is 13 years old, bruv
"Necro please..." *read in the voice of Paul Mooney*
Yeah but the Guy is still standing on the pavement
soo... ?
what is the history between the neighbor and the 13yr old?
have they ever engaged with each other before?
Have you taken the child to other places, and when there, do they demonstrate the same behavior?
Is the child's only outlet for curiosity and subject to focus on what they see around the house they live in?
I'm trying to help.
