Am I allowed to go for JUST a drive?

Apologies in advance for adding another thread to the 4729859 already.
I'm just looking for clarification.
My little boy is 3, diagnosed ASD. He hasn't napped in bed in over a year. He doesn't even nap much but sometimes falls asleep in the car. Does that mean I can't even take him for a drive to let him sleep for 20 minutes? Some days he's up at 5am and does need a quick doze to tide him over. He's also non verbal and has global development delay so wouldn't understand if I explain to him.

It would literally be quick drive in the car, not stopping or going anywhere, seeing anyone etc. I'm just wondering. If I can't, I can't but what would you do in this situation?

Afternoon, everyone.

Just a gentle reminder to try and keep your tone friendly. We understand that everyone's pretty stressed but we do think it's possible to disagree or tell someone outright that they're wrong, even, if you think they are, without being personal.

We can see that the OP's already said that she's not bothered by the stronger comments [Rhino hide emoji for you, OP Wink ] but we just don't think it's on to be berating parents of children with SEN, and we don't want to put people off coming here for advice at a time when that advice is so important, so let's try and keep things civil.

Thanks!
