As you may or may not know my son has autism. Lately I been losing my patience but I would never hurt my son. When I feel I might hurt him or its just to much I put him in the crib. He crys & crys but gets over it & stays quite.

He has learn how to climb to the point that he gets on the Window & starts banging hard on the window & one day someone will call & once again gonna deal with ACS. He has broken the window blinds.

Hang in there! I can't pretend I know what your going through I don't, I don't know the answer...I can only pray things will get better for u (HUGS)

Thanks I'm trying to be patience.

I think you're just being honest, Mami. I lost patience with my twins more than once! Normal part of parenting, but much harder with a special needs child, I would imagine!

Yes I have a hard job but knowing I can't do much since my son doesn't really understands drives me up the walls. I'm doing some summer planning with the kids. I figure some fresh air will help him & keep his wondering eyes looking around. He does love to go out.

There are some wonderful schools for autistic or asperger kids nowadays.

My nephew was diagnosed very young, my sister researched and found an excellent school in detroit area- now he is a marine and an air traffic controller. We are very proud of him.

How old is your son? I have 2 sons on the spectrum 23 & 16. The 23yo is Aspergers and the 16 yo is more classically autistic. When the 16yo was young he had intensive in-home therapy for 4 years that was modeled on Greenspan's Floortime method. He progressed really far and is now entering 11th grade and taking advanced classes. He still has his issues and quirks requiring a full time aide at school. He is college-bound and plans to study engineering. It gets better! If you haven't yet, you should look for a local Autism Society chapter and see if they have and support group meetings.
