Just wondering if any of you have come across this one. J has always been obsessed with his reflection, to the point where he will always look for a mirror if he's particularly happy or crying just to look at his face. He's even been known to find something to stand on when he couldn't reach without it. It's a major distraction for him as he keeps turning from the table to look in the mirror at mealtimes, laughs hysterically at 'how funny he is' when brushing his teeth (or rather, instead of brushing his teeth), always looking for an excuse to see himself. I find this odd as one of his particular difficulties is reading facial expressions and moods in others. Bit of a paradox, don't you think?
