I'm wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction for some resources to help my kids get on better.
I have an 11 year old with autism, adhd, dyspraxia. And a five year old, no sen that we are aware of.
The 11 year old seems so emotionally mature, lovely, kind boy. Always wants to do the right thing but he has absolutely no patience with his little brother.
He won't share anything with him, ever. Even toys that he hasn't played with for years. His brother isn't allowed to touch them.
He snaps at him constantly. He will only play games that he wants to play, never the other way around.
I tell him he doesn't have to play with him, he can go and have his own space, do his own thing but they do actually play together lots considering the age difference (just games the eldest chooses).
They are both such lovely boys and we make an effort to give them one on one time as well as time spent as a family but they just argue all the time as my youngest gets cross when he is so inflexible (obviously he is autistic) or impatient with him.
How best to approach this, especially given my eldests sen. I don't want to go on at him about it and make him resent his brother even more. I've tried praising him
Every time I see a positive interaction but there must be more we can do.
