[QUOTE="SRL, post: 289794, member: 701"] Hi Overmyhead, Two books that we recommend to new parents here: [COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana][B]"What Your Explosive Child Is Trying to Tell You: Discovering the Pathway from Symptoms to Solutions" by Dr. Douglas Riley[/B][/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana][B] [/B][/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana][B]"The Explosive Child" by Ross Greene (be sure and read the thread about this book on the top of this forum).[/B][/FONT][/COLOR] While I know that you'd want help focusing on what's setting him off, but often the key to addressing the explosivenes is determining the issue or issues at the root of the problem. For instance, a child who has constant low level sensory issues is understandably going to be touchier because they live life with a constant assault on their sensory systems. A child who is Asperger-ish may not understand that the explosions aren't acceptable, may not care, or may need more time and training than the typical child to handle situations in an acceptable manner. These sorts of issues can be addressed through avenues like speech and social skills training but that would involve assessment and the creation of a treatment plan.
