[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 449393, member: 1550"] Making strange, unusual, high pitched noises is also part of autism. You sure he's trying to bug you? He sounds like he could be stimming. My son is eighteen and doesn't stimulant out loud anymore, but he sure makes a racket in his room sometimes...lol. I let my son do his obsessions because he has a disorder and not letting him do them doesn't make him crave them anymore. He will talk about them nonstop and t hen start touching everything and trying to take them apart. I do force him to participate in some sports and other activities. He is high functioning enough to do them. I'm not sure that foster care would help him. He may have trouble finding foster parents who want to take him on, if he's that high maintenance, or understand Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). Is he getting any AUTSISM specific therapies? Talk therapy often is very unproductive for those with autism because they have communication problems. Is he getting school interventions? Any IEP? Have you looked into respite? [/QUOTE]
