[QUOTE="JJJ, post: 369671, member: 1169"] I agree. It looks like you are really close to Memphis, I would recommend calling the Children's Hospitals and finding an Autism Center and having him evaluated there. in my humble opinion, it is very difficult for someone without special training in Autism to correctly diagnosis. 1. Does he have an IEP? What services does he get? What classroom setting is he in? Did they do a FBA to establish a BIP? 2. Can you create a structure to his day so he knows exactly what to expect and when to expect it? 3. Create a L.E.E. when giving a direction= Low Expressive Environment: calm voice and as little language as possible; no tv/radio, etc. The idea is to eliminate as much of the outside stimuli so that your son can focus on the one direction you gave him (i.e. get out of the car). It may take him a long time to process what you asked him to do, how he feels about it, how he is going to do it and then to actually do it. 3. Some recommended reading: The Explosive Child by Ross Greene The Out of Sync Child Lost At School by Ross Greene And most of all, welcome to our little corner of cyberspace. I remember so vividly when Tigger was 5 and doing many of those same things. [/QUOTE]
