Ds is 4, he has aspergers and is frightened of a range of unusual things. His sticker phobia is the strongest. We've managed to get him to the point where he can tolerate doing sticker books but the thought of stickers being on his clothes or skin is awful to him. He really wanted to learn recorders so today was his first lesson. He was given a recorder covered in stickers and the teacher wanted to put stickers on his fingers (I guess to show him the notes). Needless to say he freaked and left. So one very excited little boy is now a little boy who doesn't want to learn to play recorder anymore.
So am I unreasonable to be pissed off that no-one at school thought to discuss ds and his problems with the recorder teacher?
