Granny's gone and done it again

Autistic people see the world in very literal, linear ways. He told her not to get the fish. Now she's having difficulties with them. In his mind, it serves her right bc she didn't do what he thought she should do. So he feels justified in letting it be her problem. Kind of, "you made your bed, now you lie in it" thinking. "Not my problem."

that makes sense BUT she is also his mother and getting older which he needs to try and wrap is head around.

I could but then she could also destroy the apartment. She's already managed to sleep her way thru every male renter here. And managed to tork each of them off as well.

Humph. Change the locks and tell her she can have her stuff when she pays the rent. That's what my folks used to do. Probably illegal now.

thats true too. He helps in other ways, just not the fish

Its hard for both parties. As a minor, its just so normal for people to expect me to be some way. Its like they are all waiting for me to become some sort of evil teenager. It feels weird being watched like that and constantly compared to other people "my age". But then, again, I can see your sides of the story too. Its hard being a parent!

It is illegal here....

I remember once when my mom's friend did that thinking it wasn't illegal. It would have been smart to check first, but she is the type of person who always does the first thing that comes to mind. Didn't serve her well. That's the hard part of renting properties, the law protects them all too well.

He can't Twist. That's like saying a person with no legs needs to start running marathons.
