One of the most interesting things about Alex is his ability to do things in moderation. This is most readily illustrated with sweets; if Alex asks for a candy bar, he will start to eat it and almost always stop while there is more remaining, because he is full. Michael, and most people, would finish that treat, but not Alex.
Where this behavior is breaking down is with interactive electronic entertainment. Unlike food, there does not appear to be a point where he has had enough. He can keep playing and playing and playing until you make him stop. This was a problem we thought we would have with Michael, but it never materialized. We are going to try to restrict his usage, but what we really need to do is teach him when has played enough to be full.
