When my son doesn't get his way, he bangs his head. Unlike normal kids, autistic kids will bang their heads until they hurt themselves. Despite this, he still doesn't get his way. I'm hoping that he'll eventually learn that banging his head does not serve any purpose. Unfortunately, we're on hole number two in the wall from the head banging.
We have been very blessed to have very understanding downstairs neighbors, and very kind maintenance workers who are willing to come and fix the holes and who understand that autistic children do these things and are not surprised or judgemental.
Thank you God.
