Autistic Child And Super Strength!
My daughter is 4 non verbal with complex learning difficulties and autism. Anyone have a super strong toddler or child? My little girl had blood tests yesterday and it's always a struggle.

Good Morning Precious Souls🌸 My 10 Year Old Is On Risperidone Since He Was 5. I Was Told To Give Him 1mg 3 X Daily.
Over the years I brought him down to 1 mg daily and it was working magic and sleeping thru from 8pm to 6am. In the last week, I feel the risperidone is not working, behaviour seems to be getting worst and also waking up around 2am and sitting on the bed until about 4.30, 5am... No idea what to do. If I make an appointment to see his neurologist I have to pay R2400 in South African Rands. Money which I don't have. Hoping someone here will be able to help me with some advice to help my boy.

More Of A Thought Than A Question.
How much of our ASD loved one's behaviors/blow-ups are actually caused by OUR inflexability?
Example: Our son was late to school 3 out of 5 days a week. Now, my issue is that this effects everyone, not just him. Also, there was a daily battle at 7:10am to get him ready, and him telling us, he didn't want to go to school, he would rather play educational games on his tablet and watch educational show, that stop and change.
I got so fed up with the fights and especially of being late so often… read more
