I dont mean that I find him abnormal or suspect any sn, but dont really have any other three, nearly four year olds to compare his behaviour with so thought of asking here.
Ds is very obsessive particular about how certain things should be. I will give a few examples:
We changed the dining table setting recently, not a huge change - turned it 90o so its easier to fit dc2's highchair next to where I normally sit. That was two months ago, and he still goes on about it. How he does not like it like this, so we need to change it back. I told him many times why I had done it, but he still goes on about it. So I've ignored it for a while but its starting to annoy me as its the same every time we sit at the bloody table!
When he sees dc2 with his dummy in his mouth he has to go and check its the 'right' way up, if it isn't he HAS to twist it around.
During bathtime he insists I close the lid of the shampoo, gel etc bottles after finishing with them, and the bar of soap has to fit properly in its holder or he does it himself and checks when he goes to the loo.
Everything has to be according to his routine and he does play up if it isnt. I washed his bedding this morning and was quite worried about drying it in time for his bedtime (as no tumble drier and no launderette within walking distance) as he would kick off if I used some spare bedding instead.
So is this what all three/four year olds are like? Or is mine just a little bit quirky? I love him just how he is but it can be quite wearing sometimes as it feels like walking on eggshells incase he objects and kicks off about a change or whatever.
