My boy has enjoyed the start of half term but the last 2 days he has either shouted or cried. He has hardly slept. He doesn’t know why. It is so upsetting and we can’t appease him. Any ideas??

Hello NAS78143,
I'm sorry to hear that you son has been demonstrating this behaviour. Individuals on the spectrum can often display behaviour that may be challenging. There will generally be a reason for this and it is important to try and understand the trigger for the behaviour when developing strategies. You may like to have a look at the following link for more information on behaviour and strategies:

You may also like to have a look at the following information on sleep in children with autism:

I hope this helps,
