[quote=Anonymous]I agree that you should come to the SNs board. You are hitting some tough years with your ASD kiddo - at least they have been very difficult for us. Also the lack of structure and change of routine around the holidays is a terrible, terrible time for my kid. (My kid of similar age lost his/her mind yesterday. It’s been too long of a break.)

I don’t have specific advice on the hitting, but I do know that kids with anxiety/ADHD/inflexibility issues show lots of signs that things are going south before something major happens and that learning to read those signs and change course is really important for any caregiver/parent. Unfortunately kiddos with ASD don’t always communicate the way a typical kid would - more often it’s through behavior, so the conflicts with the sibling were perhaps the warning signs that something was going on that he/she couldn’t express well. You are much more likely to get buy in and flexibility when you stop then and try to discuss the situation.
