Ds is 12 . Diagnosed with ASD 3 years ago. He's always been a quiet child and more likely to have a shutdown rather than a meltdown . Lately he seems to be having more shutdowns and a few meltdowns. These meltdowns are new and I'm taken back by them. He throws himself on the floor and hits it or throws something. We've never had this. I'm starting to think it's puberty. Has anyone else experienced this at this age ???.... just confused and finding it a bit overwhelming ..... do I punish him after it???.... not sure how to deal with this. Thanks .
