How to Prevent Meltdowns in Aspergers Children
Meltdowns are not a pretty sight. They are somewhat
like overblown temper tantrums, but unlike tantrums, meltdowns can last anywhere
from ten minutes to over an hour. When it starts, the Asperger's child is
totally out-of-control. When it ends, both you and the Asperger’s child are
totally exhausted. But...
Don’t breathe a sigh of relief yet. At the
least provocation, for the remainder of that day -- and sometimes into the next
- the meltdown can return in full force.
If your child suffers from
Asperger’s Syndrome, expect him to experience both minor and major meltdowns
over incidents that are part of daily life. He may have a major meltdown over a
very small incident, or may experience a minor meltdown over something that is
major. There is no way of telling how he is going to react about certain
situations. However, there are many ways to help your child learn to control his
emotions.

Parenting Defiant Aspergers Teens
Although Aspergers is at the milder end of the autism
spectrum, the challenges parents face when disciplining a teenager with
Aspergers are more difficult than they would be with an average teen.
Complicated by defiant behavior, the Aspergers teen is at risk for even greater
difficulties on multiple levels – unless the parents’ disciplinary techniques
are tailored to their child's special needs.
The standard disciplinary
techniques that are recommended for “typical” teenagers do not take into account
the many issues facing a child with a neurological disorder. Violent rages,
self-injury, isolation-seeking tendencies and communication problems that arise
due to auditory and sensory issues are just some of the behaviors that parents
of teens with Aspergers will have to learn to control.
Parents need to
come up with a consistent disciplinary plan ahead of time, and then present a
united front and continually review their strategies for potential changes and
improvements as the Aspergers teen develops and matures. Click here to read the full
