New to this group

[Guest guest]

Hello, Im so glad I found this group. My son Dylan is 7 yrs old. He

has Aspergers Syndrome and ADHD along with a laundry list of other

diagnoses. He was diagnosed when he was 3 yrs old. My husband and I do

not know anyone else who has a child with AS. Dylan has been having

major problems at school since christmas break. He throws huge fits

and has to be restrained for his own safety as well as the other

students and teachers. He hits, kicks, bites and throws chairs and

objects, screams and yells. They have had fits last as long as 40 min.

We live in a small town so they are very tolerant of this as opposed

to the much larger district we live near, who would have expelled him

by now. Dylan is very smart and reads better than all of his

classmates and loves math. Its sad that his behavior gets in the way

of that. I dont know what to tell the school to do because we dont

have these problems to this extent neither does the sitter. He is

medicated already, maybe we need to change his meds. Im at my wits

end it seems like everytime I answer the phone at work its the school

calling. Does anyone else have these problems?

Thanks Kim
