[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Autistic Logistics by Kate Wilde has a number of helpful suggestions. One is setting things up for safety. My child is extremely impulsive, which means we cannot have sharp items that are not locked away. Every kid is different, but it's possible to be safe in every situation, but you do need to be prepared [/quote] As a parent of a violent kid who was more than double the size (and age) of your kid before it got under control, I can tell you that it is NOT possible to be safe in every situation. That’s just something professionals tell you to make themselves feel better. I would tell you stories but you’ve got enough on your plate without getting into the horrible things you can’t prevent. Like a PP, I also worked with violent kids and adults. The safety training was really helpful. I highly recommend it. [/quote]
