Headphones for Autism

[tomdan]

MyDS is autistic and we have taken him to watch his local football team for a few years but now he is not like the banter that goes on between the two teams. I thought I might try him with some headphones and wondered if anyone had any recommendations? He is an adult.

You can buy ear defenders - I'm thinking of them for son but he's only 9.

My son has some "normal" noise cancelling Bose headphones and they work a treat. He does wear them 24/7 but had to take them out at school and some toad stole them. Problem was by the time he came home he was a wreck as he has to have those exact ones ... mad dash to town and he was soon back to normal.

Oh how awful,there are some terrible people out there. I know what you mean about having to have the same things all the time. Are they over the ears?
