What Do I Do About My 4 Year Old Son Who Likes To Destroy Things? It’s Not Out Of Anger Most Times, I Just Can’t Get Him To Stop.
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

My son loves to take things apart, or break things (that most of the time can’t be fixed). I know he doesn’t do it out of anger 9 times out of 10, but I just don’t know what’s going on in his head.

A MyAutismTeam Member

Trust me, I really am very encouraging and loving with him. If it looks in any way like it can be taken apart, he will. I agree it’s most likely a sensory thing, I just wish I could get him to… read more

My daughter has been dignosed with aspesgers and autism. Shes about to be 6. And my 4 year old has some of the same symtoms but shes worse when it comes to melt downs.

How To Stop Hitting?
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hi everyone. My son has ASD and is turning 3 in a few days. He is also non verbal. He has been in an early intervention preschool for 6 months. For whatever reason, after never having done this before, he is scratching other classmates.

I have watched him do it to see if there was a trigger but I can’t figure it out. It’s almost like he knows he can do it. I have realized he is noticing peers for the first time and looks like he is reaching out to them but then quickly grabs them to scratch.

How Do I Convince My Son That He Needs Social Skills Help From The Special Education Team At His School?
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

My 12 year old son has realized that he is different than the other kids at his public school, but does not want any of the other kids to know that he needs special help. He is socially lacking in some areas and would really benefit from social skills training but refuses to go to the special ed rooms or have anything to do with the special ed teachers/staff because he does not want to be associated in any way with people who have special needs. He obviously has not accepted his diagnosis and… read more

I would write the music class into his IEP as a "must be able to attend' because it is so beneficial to him. Then if his IEP also has social skills in it, the school must find a way to provide it at… read more

A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

My son is 11 and diagnosed with Asperger's spring of 2014. In his 504 plan it states that they school counselor will provide him with 'social training'. Well we are on week 5 of school and I saw the counselor while at the school yesterday and asked her when his training would begin.

1-she didn't realize that my son now has a 504 plan for ASD (she knew about his IEP for gifted....he is high functioning, but misses social cues left and right!)

2-she is open for suggestions for what to do… read more
