Bouncing

Evening all,

Having just recieved a diagnosis for my son (aged 6) im new to the site and not sure where to post this question, so apologies if its in the wrong place! Smile

 

i was just wondering if anyone has any tips on how to stop my son bouncing on his bed so much.

When he was younger he bounced through the bottom of his toddler bed, so i bought him a new single bed, which is has bounced through again for the 3rd time. i have replaced the slats 3 times, and he has broken another 4 this past week.

i cannot  afford to keep replacing the slats and was wondering if anyone had any tips.

 

thank you in advance. xxx

  • hi,

    thank you for your replies.

    i cant find anything that stimulates him to bounce, he just bounces everywhere.

    he like your daughter has no fear, and will bounce on and off anyhting, the only thing he doesnt like is the static he creates when on the trampoline.

    i have asked him to stop and he says sorry mummy, and then bounces again!

    its so distracting, as you see him out of the corner of your eye, bouncing away.

    i take it, it is a common thing amonst autistic children.
