Hello
I’m new to this site , this is my first post !
I’m Single Mum to Jayden 11 years old who is diagnosed with high functioning autism , He was Diagnosed in June 2019.
I know a fair bit but am still learning about Autism , And would appreciate some advice .
He is the most loving caring boy , he isn’t naughty at all .
He mostly struggles socially and communication also very anxious and comes across depressed occasionally.
So , what I wanted to ask people about is constant apologising..
At the moment , Jayden is constantly saying Sorry to me , for things he doesn’t need to apologise for !
Although it isn’t A bad thing , it’s worrying me ,
as he’s so apologetic and seems down ?
For example He comes to me for a cuddle and tells me he loves me at least ten times a day , Yesterday in the sweltering heat , he opens his arms up to do so and I was sweating buckets trying to get Some air so I asked to hold on for a min , and he started saying ... ‘I’m sorry I’m sorry ‘ !!
So I’m forever saying it’s alright Jayden you don’t have to apologise
But it’s over every Thing lately , and when I try to explain to him that he doesn’t need to say sorry over everything he then takes offence 
I’m just wondering if anyone has any experience with this type of behaviour ? It makes me feel terrible

Thanks in advance
