Maybe not as extreme, but right now at 6 years old, it feels impossible. I'm
here. He refuses to do most self care himself. We all try to help him but if it is not done just so, he loses it.
Take this morning for example. He is in the bathroom yelling for help. I come in and ask what is the problem? He starts screaming that is his least favorite question and that I don't understand. I make a educated guess that he needs a towel and bring him one. He yells again that isn't the problem and that I don't understand.
How do I help him if he won't tell me what is going on in his head.
He expects us to do a lot for him because he doesn't like doing it. Sometimes we can work with that. Other times, not so much. The other kids are getting fed up with his behavior and how much time it takes and how he seems to get everything done for him. This can't be fun for him either.
