[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]An 8 year old raging is a SN.  Find out what’s causing this.

If you decide to homeschool, read this:
https://www.amazon.com/Unstuck-Target-Executive-Curriculum-Flexibility/dp/1598572032

Read it anyway.  Your child has issues with flexible thinking, hence the doubling down and regulation, hence the rages.  Unstuck was developed with kids on the spectrum and retested with kids who have adhd.[/quote]

Yikes this book is $105.  Can you tell me more about it so I can decide if it would help us?

FWIW I don't think my child would actually be diagnosed as ASD or ADHD, but she certainly has many similar traits and may be somewhere in that gray area.   Academically, she excels in school and I think that is because she is very bright in terms of memory, comprehension, and abstract thinking and she is also very competitive and a bit of a perfectionist with school.  We don't push her, she pushes herself.  The rages have really gotten better as she has gotten older, and also we mostly stopped doing the things that cause her to rage (change something without her input, use "punishment" or negative consequences, be critical of her behavior, etc.[/quote]
