[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 197925, member: 1550"] I also don't believe your child was "bad" or that consequences will change him (nor no sugar, but that's JMO). Is he getting any Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) interventions in school or the community? If not, you should look into it as a child on the spectrum who does not get specific help can be VERY frustrated and hurt other people. My son is going to somebody who only works with Aspies, and it's been great for him. Regular psychologists don't work that well for Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). Tourettes and epilepsy can also cause behavior problems, so I hope he is getting the kind of help he needs for those disorders. I'm surprised he's not on an anti-seizure medication. It doesn't help that he witnessed abuse. He probably needs help on many fronts--interventions for the Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), medical help for epilepsy and Tourettes, and maybe a psychologist to deal with all these issues plus the abuse. This won't be an easy fix. If he is unstable, I'd treat his disorders. You can punish him, but I seriously doubt he will or can change right now. Sometimes kids do need medication, whehter we like it or not. We found, in our case, that our son is much better off medicaton, however he has never been violent. I would not personally put a violent child into martial arts. If they "lose it" even once, they know how to kill somebody. I don't like giving violent kids the means to do this and am not sure it is good for our kids, even though it can be very good for our easy child (non-difficult child) kids. What kind of interventions is your child receiving? Welcome to the board :) [/QUOTE]
