I was wondering if any of your kids have to have the lights on all the time. This includes day time hours. I feel like I'm constantly chasing behind the boys and turning the lights off when they aren't in use.
I've been trying to help them understand that we don't always have to have the lights on, especially when we don't need them. <img src="https://lxnxuovarpoeyuzaxuet.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/blog-images/inline/2014/01/wpid-textgram_1388858700.png" alt="" class="inline-block max-w-full h-auto rounded-xl my-4" loading="lazy" />
I think Emmett struggles with this concept the most as he's the one that's either freaking out because they are turned off or following behind me, turning them back on.
It's like a compulsion with him but it may also just be one of those *things *that come along with Autism as well.
This is something I've never brought up before but lately it's been driving me crazy and increasing our electric bill. I suppose I could unscrew or remove the bulbs but that's a pain in the ass and potentially dangerous. All of our lights are built in, so I can't unplug then either.
Do any of you struggle with the same thing?
