Why is it wrong for a child to line up their toys?

Post Reply New Topic

I've often heard that parents will freak out if their child lines up their toys because they think they are autistic. My two year old nepphew lines up his Cars cars all the time. He's learning about color and same vs diffrent that way. We have more than one of a certian car so fights don't break out because two kids want to play with Lightning McQueen at the same time. My other nepphew was at school and my two year old nepphew was the only one intrested in the Cars cars at the momment. He lined up both Lightning McQueens and all the other red cars and started making rows with other colors. He said something but he's just learning to form actual words so most of what he says comes out as giberish that only my sister-in-law can interpret. To some parents this would be a "red flag" and they would want him to be assed for autism. Even if a child really is autistic, why is it such a negetive thing for them to line up their toys?
