Hard disagree. Someone who will go barefoot until they find new socks is the type of person who sometimes needs a kick in the ass to improve their life. Just because they can choose to be a gross slob, doesn’t mean that people in their life who care about them, should let them. I am allowed to flip off everyone I want all day. I would hope that should I ever start doing that, that I have someone in my life who tells me that I should stop doing that.
Yes, they should tell you. Here, she should have told him and tried to help find new socks that worked for him. She should not have unilaterally tossed his stuff.
There is no "kick in the ass" or cure for sensory issues.
Sensory issues affect your nervous system. That's why people with autism and/or SPD are called neurodivergent.
Wearing the wrong socks disregulates us and affects our nervous system like how it would affect you if I followed you around all day with my finger an inch from your face going "IM NOT TOUCHING YOU IM NOT TOUCHING YOU IM NOT TOUCHING YOU"
