ds1's behaviour really is gettign worse at home. The twins are now nearly 3, so they are challenging in any case and he jsut aggravates them.
I can no long er take them shopping on my own, walking anywhere near a raod is almost impossible and at home I'm running aroudn liek a headless chicken. He keeps punching the others, this morn he pushed dt1 down the stairs. He is hypersensitive and if something upsets him he goes in a mood, howls and then lashes out. I feel like I am dealing with three 3yos.
He doesn't lsiten to a word I say, it goes in one ear and the other. Positive reinforcement, punishment, bribery all have no affect on controlling his behaviour, so I'm at a loss. He jsut doesn't care, never has done. He spends most of the time in his own little world and does exactly what he feels like. He has dxs of dyspraxia and hypermobility. But he also has stong autistic type tendances. Jury is still out on whether it is because of the dyspraxia or whether he should be dx with autism too.
At school, he gets one to one support and is lvoely. He is lovely with me when I can give him one to one, but I can't do that all the time at home, I have four children to look after.
Sorry for the rant, but if anyone could give me any ideas on how I mgiht get through to him I'd be really grateful.
