DS (AS or ASD) has a lot of imaginary friends which is lovely and doesnt bother me at all. I remember really enjoying my imaginary friends when I was younger. But he does have an awful lot of them and today it sort of changed a little. He was sat on the floor crying and angry, wouldnt let me touch him etc because he had a row of imaginary cars lined up in front of him that he could not pick up, and he wanted to pick them up and play with them. I just found it strange that it was his imaginary friends and his game but he still had this problem. It was very upsetting & frustrating for both of us and lasted around 30 minutes.
Here are some suggested organisations that offer expert advice on special needs.
SN children
Do ASD children tend to have more imaginary friends?
