We had no idea how terrifying it was for him when he was little and undiagnosed!<br /><br />StayQuirky--love the idea of 'watching the car' go through the wash.

Once we went to a car wash where you get out of the car and can watch the car go through the wash from behind big glass windows, and it seemed to help my boy understand the whole process. Now he doesn't mind it ...so much so that I forget it can still be an overstimulating thing. Made the mistake of going through with the kid AND the dog in the car. They both freaked each other out.

He didn't like feeling so trapped, and he had no idea how long it would last, if it would ever end, etc. because he didn't understand our words when we tried to tell him. :(Merri Lewishttp://treasuresinthedust.comnoreply@blogger.com
