Ds was asd diagnosed at 2. He was very firmly obsessed with transformers and had no interest in anything else. This led to us watching YouTube videos on how to transform some of the trickier toys he had. While viewing these videos 2 years ago he came across five nights at freddys and has since been obsessed with this. He has clothes, toys, bootleg toys, the game itself, lego FNAF sets as well as minecraft FNAF sets. There is literally no where to turn with this. I bought him a pc and set him up on minecraft in the hopes of moving away from this but now he has discovered that there are lots of fan games of FNAF on minecraft and roblox so that is where he spends all his time. He cannot maintain friendships as his peers are not interested in FNAF. Does anyone have any advice on if i should just go with it and hope it burns out so to speak? Or if i should try to find friends on forums for him (I'm very wary of this btw). Also to add he is aware of other similar genre games such as baldi's basics and bendy and the ink machine but nothing holds his interest like FNAF. His recent birthday presents all sit unopened and unused as there is no more FNAF merchandise I can buy so I bought Minecraft lego and Roblox toys which is my costly mistake. I want him to be happy but also to broaden his horizons, I feel stuck. Sorry for the long post x
