You'd think that the parents would buy their son a waterproof analog watch and teach him to tell time show him what ten minutes look like on the watch so that he knows when to get out from under the shower.

I guess this is how some autistic can become obnoxious because the parents clearly spoil them and try to make things easier all the time

Tell me about it, I once saw a post on Reddit written by a 17 year old and she was in the bathroom and her 22 year old brother wanted to be in there. She wouldn't let him in so he waited until she was gone with her friends before he destroyed her make up collection. The fact that he had waited until she was gone and only targeted her make up collection because he knew that was her passion, tells me he is in control of his behavior. The parents blamed it on the girl saying she should have just let him in the bathroom invading her privacy. He was also severe on the spectrum but the parents made me so mad and I blamed the behavior on the parents because they created this. Autistic people can be manipulative too and abusive if they are allowed to get away with it.
