Advice needed please!

Hi. 
I have a 6 year old son who’s diagnosed with autism, being assessed for ADHD and learning disability, and sensory issues. 

weekends are so incredibly hard :( 

how do I stop him violently kicking everything as hard as he can? Both feet - headboards, doors, cupboard doors, radiators, the bath… it’s constant :( his obsession at the moment is water…. So he’sTired faceonstantly turning on taps Tired face 

He gets EXTREMELY frustrated with the tv when he can’t find what he wants and screams non stop :( 

any advice would be greatly appreciated. 

im struggling so bad :(

  • The same with my son. He was becoming increasingly frustrated at not being able to control or look for, what he views. I bought him a tablet with a thick rubber casing. He's calmed down much more, now that he has some control and ability to choose what to watch. (with supervision) The thick casing helps when it does get thrown in frustration but this is rare now.

    I can't help with the kicking but as noted, taking his foot ware off might deter him from kicking hard surfaces. I hope things have improved in the last month since you posted this.
