Hi everyone,
My son was diagnosed with Aspergers in 2011. He is now 10 and is becomming more and more of a challenge at home. I am a single mother of 3 and he is my eldest. I think a lot of the changes in his behaviour are associated with hormones but with the aspergers thrown into the mix it is beccoming increasingly more difficult to communicate with him. he is angry most of the time; his tendancy to blame everyone else for him getting into trouble has gone to a new level, he frequently burst into tears and generally feels that no one is listening to him. He will often blatantly lie too so when he is being listened to he will get in trouble for not telling the truth.
I just feel like I am losing control and am struggling to be patient and understanding. Its like there is always something and i dont want to constantly tell him off or punishing him, yet i dont want him to feel like its ok to behave so badly. I feel awful because he seems to be so miserable - unless he is playing Fifa 
- but am really unsure of how to deal with him???
