Guest guest Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 Help me anyone???!!! I know that aggression and AS go hand in hand but I was wondering if there is anything that can be done to help my HFA 5 year old son handle his anger. He used to be the total opposite and would withdraw in the fetal position when he was upset. From there he went through a phase of just shaking all over and screaming like a wild animal. Now he is getting aggressive, hitting at walls and people. Yesterday he was quietly playing the computer and suddenly I heard this almighty angry scream and then a huge bang. I went into his room just in time to see him throwing the keyboard across the room, the speakers and the monitor were already on the floor. He was angry because the game froze. It frightened me because he's so small (much smaller than he should be at his age) and not overly strong yet. I was thinking if this continues imagine what damage a bigger older kid could do. He has never taken any medication and the aggression only comes on when he is about to have a meltdown, or when he gets angry and frustrated. What do you guys recommend? I'd welcome any comments.
