[quote=scaredycat]he’s an odd duck. don’t know that there’s a particular activity that would inspire him. he’s very resistant to punishment. We have a legendary family story where he was once given a “time out” in early elementary school and told to stand outside the door to the classroom outside. The teacher forgot about him and realized she hadn’t heard from him for sveeral hours. He was contentedly sitting on the floor watching ants. He would probably do better than the average person in solitary confienemnt, so normal deterrents may not work…[/quote]
You mention he stays home a lot. What does he do? You mention he likes to read a lot. What does he read? What does he talk about? What does he and his friend like to do?
