Advice

Son diagnosed 18 months ago with Autism,10 years old and spends all day in his room playing his pc.We were told to allow this as its his window to the world, but over the last 2 months he seems to be getting worse.my sons autism is noticeable in the social side of life.I would love any help or advice in how to break the computer,school computer,bed,computer cycle. He just sits on his bed when we dont allow him pc time.He wont go out and play and spends very little time with the family as a family.On top of all this he has bad excema and when he gets stressed it flares up considerably (and due to his condition,if he doesnt get on his pc he gets stressed) I thank you in advance for any future help.

  • Thanks. If you ask her to tidy up she will turn into violence screaming and telling me no. She wont even help put baby toys away. But social services say because she is violent I'm doing something wrong she been violent since age of 2 and was told when she was diagnosed she won't change this is who she is I just have to handle the violent out bursts. Social services don't believe this and in my eyes know nothing about asperger so i have printed them info for them to read about asperger :)
