i mean greg is probably one of the better tv dads ive seen?? he loves his son openly and fully and is affectionate and encouraging and obviously has a strong bond with his son. he doesn’t tell him to “man up” about shit and supports him and what he does and just wants the best for him. 

he has low self-esteem and is still mourning his wife who he loved very very much and obviously cares about his son’s welfare. he has him living in a nice house even when he cant afford one (which isnt an inherent flaw either) with other guardians to look out for him when he’s working and he’s always involved in his kids life and loves him a lot. i love the gems too but that doesnt mean theyre perfect parents. 

be nice 2 greg universe

Social skills: noticing when repetition is communication

[realsocialskills]

So there’s this dynamic:

Autistic person: The door is open!

Other person: I *know* that. It’s hot in here.

Autistic person: The door is open!

Other person: I already explained to you that it’s hot in here!

Autistic person: The door is open!

Other person: Why do you have to repeat things all the time?!

Often when this happens, what’s really going on is that the autistic person is trying to communicate something, and they’re not being understood. The other person things that they are understanding and responding, and that the autistic person is just repeating the same thing over and over either for no reason or because they are being stubborn and inflexible and obnoxious and pushy.

When what’s really happening is that the autistic person is not being understood, and they are communicating using the words they have. There’s a NT social expectation that if people aren’t being understood, they should change their words and explain things differently. Sometimes autistic people aren’t capable of doing this without help.

So, if this is happening, assume it’s communication and try to figure out what’s being communicated. If you’re the one with more words, and you want the communication to happen in words, then you have to provide words that make communication possible. For example:

Other person: Do you want the door to be closed, or are you saying something else?

Autistic person: Something else

Other person: Do you want to show me something outside, or something else?

Autistic person: Something else

Other person: Are you worried about something that might happen, or something else?

Autistic person: Worried

Other person: Are you worried that something will come in, or that something will go out?

Autistic person: Baby

Other person: She’s in her crib, and the baby gate is up. Is that ok, or is there still a problem?

Autistic person: ok

This changes everything.

I babysat an autistic kid for a few years, it’s hard to understand how their brain works sometimes but when you click, everything pays off. patience and love, my friends.
