Guest guest Posted December 23, 2003 Report Share Posted December 23, 2003 Okay need to vent before I go on with my day. Was off yesterday took son to see Lord of the Rings, he watched engrossed for the entire movie with continual self stim stuff. Came home did usual afternoon stuff, usual bedtime routine, meds,etc. Had him do about an hour of math as I could tell his little mind was in total over drive and this usually burns up some of that mental energy. Took him to bed with me as listening to someone sleep sometimes help him when he is flying high. NO SLEEP ALL NIGHT! Was woke up every 15 minutes with some question about the movie, it was like he spent the whole night processing the film. OH MY GOD AM I EXHAUSTED! oh love the world of autism and some of its less desirable side effects. By the way for the person who dosen't know about making their child go up at church, why bother, it stresses the child and you. I finally came to this conclusion after struggling with my son at mass, now at 10 he ushers whenever they let him (loves that helping with counting the money after)carries candles up to the alter, whatever they'll let him do. Did have to stop catechism with him as it was in the evenings which is not his best time of day, doing it at home. Oh goodness this is the rambling of a sleep deprived crazy woman, sorry.
