Took my 3 dc's out to a play centre today.
Oldest DS is 8 with AS. He did pretty well until another boy beat him in football and at a running race. Then DS got really pushy, nasty etc. I was at him immediately telling him to calm down and play nice etc but he ignored me and ran off, kicking the other boy in the back of the legs and knocking him down. Other parents were pissed OFF.
My son is heavy and strong and I couldn't get him under control except to get him on the floor in a hold. I couldn't handle him and my other two kids and the pushchair and get out of their and DS would not calm down. Luckily my younger two put on their shoes and sat quietly down. The afternoon was ruined for them.
I had to call DH at work and get him to come down and take us home. DS was pretty much trying to kick the crap out of me and I was just barely holding my own. No way was I letting him go after seeing how he was going after some of the other kids. He is strong.
I know that earlier on he was trying to make friends with other kids who were there playing but he tries too hard and got ditched pretty promptley. The boy he went nuts on later in the afternoon was actually trying to play football with ds and being nice to him for quite awhile.
Got told off by parents and had loads of people staring at us.
Going to open the wine tonight.
