Son refuses to go to bed, pinching, scratching

  1. In the past couple of weeks my 4 your old, non verbal, autistic son refuses to go to bed. We know he's tired (been awake all day without any naps). However when I try taking him up, he almost struggles and fights to stay down stairs. On a few occasions he's slept on the floor and I've had to pick him up, whilst he's asleep, to bed. This behaviour coincides with other changes (scratching and pinching). It's appeared suddenly and out of nowhere. Any ideas? Suggestions?

    • Hey guess what...life isn't a dream! Do you know what autistic really is? ....its not about how you want the world to be.i seriously dislike how parents jump on this forum and expect their perfect solution. You had your child...deal with them you freaks.maybe grow some love and care ffs
  • I can hear your hurt:( Did you also experience a lot of unnecessary unkindness from your parents? My mother and I no longer speak... 

    It's hard to assume the best sometimes when Autistics experience so little compassion. 

    I just watched the second Fantastic Beasts. Newt is 100% autistic. I wish the world could understand the potential we all have and help us thrive.
