[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 693502, member: 1550"] Since he is autistic and also unfortunatrly violent, tell him exactly what his schedule will be. Unless he is on new medications which have removed his violent meltdowns, they could happen anytime/anywhere and he is a man now, probably big. I like the idea best of seeing him away from home. Maybe in a crowd of strangers he will be less likely to have a meltdown and hurt the younger kids. Of course, autistics sometimes will act out anywhere since some dont care what anyone thinks about their behavior. Have you ever thought of having him live in agroup home where he can be watched and not around the younger kids? I am very grateful that my Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) son is not violent, but I spent years in a parent group for autistic touched families and those autistics who were violent could become very unsafe for teachers, classmates and siblings. Anyone eho got in their way, really. Thats off topic. Whatever you decide to do, tell him first so there are no surprises. I favor seeing him outside of the home. But you know his behavior best. If he is best at home, do that. My Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) son hates fireworks because of the loud noise. As you know, loud noise is a big anxiety for most with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). For many reasons, its a good plan probably to take him back before those festivities hsppen, just as you plan. But remember that he will hear firecrackers and possibly fireworks from neighbors before you plan to do yours. Maybe get him back by 3:30? Enjoy!! [/QUOTE]
