Today, it was forcefully driven home to me that autism inconsistently affects the ability to interpret communication. For example, some days, when I say to Michaela, Please put your boots on. that is clearly what she hears, because that is what happens. And some days, she obviously hears, Please (run to the farthest reach of the house while tearing out the french braids I just spent 15 minutes putting in, and hide. See if you can steal a handful of cookies. Turn the tv on and off obsessively, precisely 3 times. Find your iPad and plug it in and unplug it obsessively, precisely 3 times. Run around the house gathering up as many toys as possible; you will clearly need them for the 7 minute drive to school. When I finally catch you and bring you down to the hallway, wail like youre being tortured, and please see if you can bloody my nose by head-butting me while I try to help you) put your boots on.
