Thanks for posting. My son has ASD (I probably do to an extent) and it's really sensory issues that challenge him. It's always a challenge that behaviours associated with ASD are seen as 'odd and awkward' and are not bad behaviour, just coping.

My youngest son is on the autism spectrum and eats basically the same food every day and has done for about the last 30 years. It’s what he’s comfortable with and that’s fine.
