[quote=Anonymous]So, I think you really need to decide/have evaluated if your child is SN or not. I say this because as another posted pointed out, this probably will happen again. I'm a teacher, and children that are SN and violent are generally not placed in mainstream classrooms. Managing a SN child that hits at 12 is different from managing a neurotypical child that hits at 12. If you've self-diagnosed that he might be on the spectrum, you really need to get an official diagnosis. I have seen instances where parents self-diagnose "my child is on the border of spectrum" to explain away problem behaviors when in fact the child is not and they don't want to actually discipline the neurotypical child. There can be no ambivalence. Either your child is SN or not. A neurotypical 12 year old child hitting an adult is very serious. In either case, you know your older child can be violent so you need to understand the situation exactly so you can proceed accordingly. [/quote]
