Our Aspergers Teenage Boy

Mom reports:
Tommy has to get a new board installed in his computer before he can use the PC game he got for Christmas. He hasn’t touched the world band radio since being lectured not to “turn the knobs too much or he’ll wear them out”. Right now he is trying to put together his remote control car but with all the rules being barked at him I predict he’ll be back on the new DS game (it required no assembly or safety rules) very soon. I am not an Aspie but I understand Tommy really well and right now I am keenly aware of how adults can take all the fun out of play.
