DS (8) ASD/ADHD is off his meds whilst his heart is under investigation.
Clearly very different in school because of this and there is only one TA in the class. All of those things that the meds were helping are more prevalent, so he is constant talking, fidgeting, being super impulsive.... if he needs to do something, he needs to do it now! He is just the same at home and always apologizes when this is pointed out to him. He just can't help it.
All of this has lead to lots of punishments in class for ds, one of which is being sent to the back of the class to sit by himself. Yesterday apparently he was talking so got sent to the very back of the class to sit at this table by himself. Of course this didn't help because he needs to be doing or he starts moving, which he did by rocking on his chair. This resulted in him falling and cracking his forehead open that needed a hospital visit to be glued.
Now I'm not sure how to follow this up (if at all). WWYD if this were your child.
