[QUOTE="whatamess, post: 559100, member: 7664"] Maybe he was "overtired" and didn't recognize how to help himself (which would have been to begin readying for bed and going to sleep). I look at him getting ready to play football as a rudimentary attempt to help himself calm or get rid of whatever feeling "overtired" feels like. Afterall, you encourage him to engage in physical activity and sports, those things have positive connotations for him - you approve of them AND they make him feel good. I would, in a calm moment, reflect with him that he seemed very tired and offer that it is ok for him to try a bath to calm and see if he recognizes that he begins to feel sleepy. [/QUOTE]
