[quote=Anonymous]Do you think he feels remorse or is it a communication issue? In the moment, my middle schooler gets swamped with anxiety and if pushed will freeze or eventually get angry. But he definitely feels bad and will initiate apologies once he’s recovered from the initial attack (which is definitely how his body’s fight or flight response interprets it). We have tried to give him scripting on how to apologize I. The moment so it doesn’t require brain power he doesn’t have. We’ve also talked to his teachers about good ways to approach him. But honestly, there are teachers that shame and overpolice kids on the spectrum, so the way you described it does make me a little uncomfortable that might be going on here. My kid also has issues being responsible for all of his homework, etc. but that is an executive function issue and doesn’t have anything to do with apologizing. [/quote]
