Does anyone homeschool?
Since going back from the last half term my sons behaviour has really changed, he had such a good year and now everything is going backwards
I don't know if it's hormones kicking in at 7 nearly 8, he's got so much rage and its so hard to calm it down, when he is at home he is mostly fine, school is making it worse. This holiday was fine some little tantrums but going back to school he's totally changed. He throws things, has hit out at other kids and is currently only in from 9 til lunchtime
He has all the coping things but forgets them or they don't work, doesn't like headphones, doesn't like the loop earphones, has brain breaks often cos he can't sit still, even at home he is outside most of the time biking up and down, climbing, scootering! We are up the park every single day of the week for hours so he can get some energy out
He has not been diagnosed though everyone knows he is on the spectrum, as he was in an assessment room with 2 adults he was totally fine!
I am unable to drive so I worry if we try homeschooling he will be bored, as much as he'd like to be gaming or up the park all day he has to learn too, ideally it'd be small trips and things but I can't travel super far. I'm so worried he's going to end up behind everyone else, he was full time but is back down to leaving at midday again.
Does anyone have any advice? I feel like an absolute failure, after everyone being so proud of how far he's come 😠would it be unreasonable to homeschool? I asked him how he felt and he said "maybe but not forever"
