[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 4 year old, high function autism & highly chance of adhd,Alcan concentrate well on certain tasks for long time. He rarely gets angry/never hit, and he recovers from sadness/angry/upset in minutes by himself. He recovers by going up to his room to feel sad for minutes, or he does things to make himself happy in minutes. Therapist says those are good solid skills that he was naturally born with to cope with those negative emotions. He has his challenge which are he gets hyper (due to screentime, fun & silly games, playground etc) so easily, then he will does silly things or say silly words. He also gets emotional easily, but his emotions are come & go, no big deal. He does well in daycare settings. His OT therapist has been teaching him to do yoga poses to calm him down (due to his wiggling, not listening & impulsive behavior). He can be a calm boy all day, and he can be a roller coastal emotional boy sometimes. However, he is never aggressive, just his impulsive behavors sometimes gets to decide his emotions. His autism behavior is really mild.[/quote]

There are some kids with autism and little behavior or aggression. Great for those kids. But unfortunately aggression does occur in adhd and autism but not ALL cases. It’s a percentage and lots of research on this. Like myself many of those parents are not just letting them get away with it as it’s neurological. I’m pp poster who does ABA 20 hours, there are consequences and swift. One have one my stepson with autism just like you described and he was always calm. Our son though is definitely aggressive and even bit as a child. The calm was was very creative. My son is not and more rigid analytical.  Adhd and autism are not all the same. Just want to clear up that there is undisputed aggression in some kids. [/quote]
