Ds1 is 9 and has a lot of sensory problems that are actually getting worse as he gets older. He has only recently been accepted by OT who surprisingly has been very supportive. Says he has a processing disorder and brought up a lot of other things and he has another assessment tomorrow. What I just wondered is where do you buy your dc clothes from?!?! Tops aren't major problem, socks always have to be next black ones, that's fine but trousers are a major issue. Need adjustable waistband as he's very skinny. Can't wear jeans, won't wear joggers as 'too baggy' doesn't like things with any joins or seams on back of knees. Can't wear anything made from 'swooshy' material. Won't wear leggings as 'not a girl'. He hates standing out so wouldn't wear pj bottoms etc. he's been wearing the same trousers for ages and are falling apart. Really hard to get them washed as he hates the just washed feeling even though I tumble dry! Won't wear anything with a cuffed ankle which is in fashion at the moment. Have so many new pairs of different trousers he won't wear!
