Not entirely sure what I can say to help but....

I'm finding a plan outlined each day and checking off things (fun and chores) when they're done. Starting each morning in exactly the same way and allowing for delays so not getting stressed if we're not fed and dressed before the time I've said we're heading out. Also company. Seeing an adult for conversation every day Grin

If you are looking for advice to help with your children with autism you may find the SEN boards more helpful, however it would help other posters if you explain what issues you are having rather than asking for ‘Advice’ only.

Juiceylucy09 · 06/04/2018 01:04

Seriously? How can you expect advise with near no information.

Do the 3 of your DC have Autism.

Gottokondo · 06/04/2018 09:07

I always put a bit of milk in my eggs before I scramble them. It makes them so much better.

That's my advice.

TheLastMermaid · 06/04/2018 13:28

Perhaps you could say whether it's you that has autism and finding it hard or struggling because one, two or all of your children are autistic - or both.

You'd still be anonymous.

elliejjtiny · 06/04/2018 13:48

Are you looking for respite, days out with the children or help with coping at home with them?

Not sure if it's the same in Scotland but here if you google your council name and local offer there should be a list of activities going on in the holidays suitable for children with special needs.

For coping at home, visual timetables and chocolate Grin

BarbarianMum · 06/04/2018 13:53

Are you autistic OP? Or one or more of your children? And what exactly is the problem - over stimulation, lack of routine, not wanting to go outside....?

FissionChips · 06/04/2018 14:09

Were you drunk?Grin

CaptainKirkssparetupee · 06/04/2018 14:11

You need to explain the issue in detail in order to get advice, you are currently drip feeding.

TiffanyDoggett · 06/04/2018 17:18

I imagine OP was coping with the hols in the same way I would be if it weren't for being pregnant Grin. Give her the benefit of the doubt given the time and posts.

piercinggelo · 06/04/2018 17:22

This is hilarious. It's meant to be ANOMOUS

Yeah. That and he fact you are kind of meant to explain what you posted for?

One word is simply not enough for anyone to form a reasonable reply.

elliejjtiny · 06/04/2018 18:43

My thoughts too Tiffany Grin. Looking forward to Monday. 3 hours where I don't have to remind a small person that we don't lick hubcaps.
