DS hit me in the face and made my nose bleed

[donkeyderby]

Feeling a bit shell-shocked and reduced to drinking too much wine and watching 'Three Weddings and a Funeral' for the Nth time like a zombie. He's been hitting all holiday so far, all day every day (except when other people around that he likes to impress).

There never seems to be any rhyme or reason for the violence. Thank god for good friends and for his Aiming High easter playscheme next week and for wine. I start counting the years until he is eligible for full-time care but worry that he'll miss us and get mistreated and he'll hit his carers and they will hate him.

oh I am sorry to hear that(I won't bention what I saw in the local rag)
do you want to meet up sometime soon?

sorry things are so tough.

(i dont know anything about you or your Ds...) but have you tried gluten free casein free and biomed approach - have a look at the 'ASD and supplementation....' thread just started.

the treating autism website that is mentioend in OP is very helpful

What did you see in the local rag 2shoes? Go on punk, make my day! Yeah, love to meet up after the 'holidays'. Don't worry, he'll be behaving himself at the club - he always does.

well in the paper it said that the building that they use is going to close in november.
will be a shame as it is so accesible.

you have my smypathies but alas there is nothign elsei may offer

I knew the building was in trouble 2shoes, but I thought they were going to get more funding. It's a crying shame isn't it and so much money wasted building a brand new state of the art centre only to close it a few years later. Criminal.

Thanks for the support, wraith and improvingslowly. I had a better day - DS only pushed me a couple of times and tried to kick a small disabled child but otherwise, was ok. A relative success, all things considered. As that noble sage Ronan Keating once said, 'Life is a rollercoaster'

it is a shame, especially when youthink why that club in that area was set up in the first place.
I hope you get a break tommorow, I ssume your ds will be going(told dd to say hello)

Yes he will be going. He is calm tonight and always behaves at club so don't worry about your dd if you were! You may catch dh dropping him off but I'm working in the morning. A bit of light relief! Hope your holidays going well and you enjoy your day off x

OH I don't worry I have seen him there and he is always ok.
hope he enjoys it
