Hi Craig,

I was checking the archive and once again noticed something from a session a while ago, Part 2 of February 2011:

http://www.autismhangout.com/news-r....asp?id2=165

Dr. T. replied that it was a common issue, gave a number of strategies but was very clear that he wanted to cover the topic in more depth another time*.
It hasn't been covered again since then, and I think now might be a good time.
The question essentially was / is:

"How to motivate an Aspie to complete work and improve focus on things that do not interest the Aspie?"

* Dr. T. specifically mentioned that he had some interesting notes from a group of teenagers that he was working with at the time - have a look at the video, it is the first question of that video.

Ivo.
