Violent behaviour

The school has alerted me to my son displaying violent behaviour at school this week, this is an escalation for him. He’s 6 and diagnosed recently after awaiting diagnosis for 3 years. He uses ear defenders, a soft toy and chewable fidget at school.

I’m setting up a meeting with them next week and I’m just looking for advice from parents who might have experienced this as to what to expect and what I should be asking for or suggesting when it comes to support.

He has had change lately that I think is impacting his behaviour, but he’s always struggled socially. Any advice happily received!

Dear NAS96749,

Thank you for sharing this with our community. While we are waiting for the community to respond, you may like to contact our Parent-to-Parent service, who offer a confidential telephone helpline, providing emotional support (via a one-off call) to parents and carers, of autistic children.

The volunteers are all parents of a child or adult with autism and can provide a listening ear, understanding and a chance to talk things through.

You may like to talk about your child (or grown up child) who has received an ASD diagnosis, is awaiting a diagnosis, or maybe has identified signs of autism.

After the call, volunteers send information which may be helpful for that family.

You can find further information about the service and an online enquiry form here:

Thank you. I hope this helps!

Warm regards,
