Have got him until 3pm while his parents are at work & I feel it is going to be a very long day. DS1 has had strop after strop because they want to do things that he doesn't. The boy (2 weeks older than DS) is playing with DS2 (6)rather than DS1 because he is better company for him. They want to play out the front but DS1 will strop because he wants to go out the back & there is no give & take with him. They were collecting elastic bands & Ds threw one of them into the road in a strop because they are not doing what he wants. He has also had a crying fit because the boy apparently used the phrase "you are big & ugly enough to do it yourself" & DS took it literally. The more he strops etc the more he is making himself a bullying target, but what can you do?
Forgot to mention that DS is being assessed for AS but we have no dx yet so I still find him very hard to understand at times.
