Needing help, just need to chat about ny son,

Hi My son is 4, he is the youngest of 3 boys he also has a younger sister.

He has always been very different from the others needing routine being very angry, very little emotion.

But he is very able and you could sit next to him and chat and you really would not realise, his issues.

I am worried that the people diagnosing him, might miss it also, he is very suttle in his behavior until he is comfortable with his surrondings and with others around him.

But its then when his aggression start, this is usualy contained in the house but at times of shifting set at friends houses this has shown its face, even with routine through the day.

I am a full time working Mum and my husband has had to become a stay at home daddy as I really dont know how to deal with him, it really makes me cry.

When its my day off he wont let me took him in bed unless he says, as its not my job as he says, it will always end with me having to walk away as this just hightens he anxietys and then his aggression. what can I do when I speak to peolpe they look at me as if to say yes what ever, due to them only seing the nice side as he is not familiar with them and hasnt as yet attacted a stranger. he is very normal but so not.

love him to bits, and cuddle my others each night I get home and wish he woulld let me without him becoming anxious and hitting me.

Cheers

Sam

  • Hi - you could take videos of his behaviour at home to show the professionals who are diagnosing him, you/your husband, cd also keep a diary.  He is used to a routine + certain people doing certain things.  When that changes it makes him anxious + he reacts the way he does. He may have everyone in compartments, so daddy does this,mummy does that etc.  Then if that changes he'll react against it. If you haven't have a look around the site via the home pg.  Loads of info which may help. Also lots of info in the posts.  Is he at nursery school - how's he doing there - got enough support?  Children can keep their stress in at school sometimes + then let it out at home.
