Hi i wondered if anyone could help , my son has aspergers and struggles with sensitivity over the past 2 years my son has been sensitive in his groin area where he constantly has to cross his legs as he says he cant handle the feeling , its taking over his life , the drs are no good and say its something he needs to deal with .

My tween son refused to wear short sleeves or shorts. This only became an issue a years ago. He used to wear whatever I picked out for him. I only put him in soft material like sweat pants and cotton shirts, removing any irritating tags. It gets in the low 100's over the summer and I'm hoping to turn this behavior around before summer. Has anyone else encountered this?

He punches, kicks, screams, you name it. If we tell him to stop hitting he has even more of a meltdown. This has become an issue not because by the time he finally calms down and gets dressed we end up being late to school. We have tried having him pick his clothes. We have also tried having multiple options available to him when getting… read more
