barefoot wend Report post Posted October 4, 2005 Dear All Hope you don't mind me posting about something not strictly AS. My son aged 12 is having difficulties at school. He goes to a bit of a horror one - like the old schools with lots of strict rules and very worried about their league standing so very pushy. My son is bright but doesn't make friends that easily. He's been a real friend to my AS son - he's even stopped him from ceasing to be. The problem is that he's a bit sensitive and has a tendency to cry when he's even mildly told off. This obviously causes problems at school. I have spoken to school -matron's very good but individual teachers aren't. I've considered moving schools but it won't stop him bursting in to tears at the drop of a hat and I'm worried that it could lead to teasing, which he doesn't suffer from at present. He won't countenance any sort of counselling as he thinks it makes him a cissy! Any ideas, if you have some, would be very much appreciated.

nvapid Report post Posted October 4, 2005 kinda out of the box here... tears are the fastest way to rid the body of excess hormones - due to puberty, illness, poor or low immune system, stress and as we all have experienced - pregnancy (men in an observers role) does he take a daily vitimin (A,C,D, Iron and especilly B complexes)? exercise also helps to eliminate the excess through sweat do you want to think about learning relaxation and meditation techniquies?
