Boxes

NAS75657

Does anyone have problems with items being wrapped or in boxes. My Son hates anything in boxes, cupboards or wrapped up he has to get them out. He may have ADHD too so he isn’t methodical or careful with things but denying him a look inside things just results in frustration a lot of frustration.

  • I can only think it is the unpredictability of a surprise that causes him to hate them. I don’t particularly like wrapped presents unless I know what’s inside. Mostly Because I don’t want to offend anyone and prefer to prepare what I am going to say. Have you tried labelling things like cupboards and boxes. You could even label presents with what’s inside. Are you able to ask him why he is acting that way?
