He's rarely violent, but his older sister won't put him on his butt either, so she just takes it. Maybe they both can do it? I know they teach them when to use the defense, but we have to be ... |

| Sensory Issues are huge with him. He also goes from calm to crazy very fast. If he sees the girls wrestling around, he gets so wound up, one of them will get hurt if I don't intervene. What are some activities that help with gross motor and clumsiness. He tends to eat pavement more than most kids. H... |

| Honestly, he only has one or two behaviors that need addressed consistently. Most of the things are "normal", every once in a while things. Over the last 2 years I have learned not to get so caught up on the little things and enjoy all the things I love about him. He is very quick witted and always ... |

| He can't lie about the stickers. I put them in a box and save them for when he's older. It seems, with him, its easier to set boundaries. When he has a full understanding of his boundaries, he does very well. When things like someone cheating at shoots and ladders happens, that's out of bounds. He l... |

| I'm not sure he is trying to just "engage" He finds it rather funny when he gets under everyone's skin. Its gotten to the point where everything besides basic stuff, he has to earn. He gets juice in the morning with his "poo" medicine, after that he earns juice for lunch and dinner. He has to treat ... |

| My son got diagnosed almost a year ago with mild AS. Needless to say, I think I'm doing the worst at adjusting. I find it incredibly hard to be able to tell when its AS or he's being a turkey. I want to challenge him to always improve, but not beat down on his confidence. It seems as if that is a fi... |
