What Ben needs right now more than anything else is for the Boston Red Sox to win the World Series.
Ben needs to be noticed, recognized, appreciated, adored and worshiped.

Ben needs to learn to Play Purposefully with Toys.
I'm sure they'll think I'm awful because I think Ben needs a special education class.
Ben needs more than friendly advice.
Ben needs to talk with a professional counselor about his problems.
Ben needs to use lambda to make a procedure. [I wonder if we should codify something?]

Big Ben needs to stop so the faithful can hear the call to prayer.
Ben needs to learn his left from his right.
Ben needs a towel snap sound effect for the joke punchlines.
Ben needs very specific, concrete examples of when and where certain language should be used.
Ben needs transitional support when there is a change in routine and/or schedule.
Ben needs his orange hat, Milo wants to sleep with his shoes on, Ben needs a specific book to sleep with, Milo can't get comfortable on his pillow. [Who is this Milo interloper?]
Ben needs to show that at least one of his arguments is sound on its own and he has failed to do so. [Yeah, well, get in line for that one.]
Ben needs a home with a secure yard or daily trips to a Dog Park so he can run without getting into trouble.
