I have a 9 yr old severely autistic son, and two other sons aged 7 and 10,who have austistic traits but have not been assessed yet. A behavioural therapist did pay home visits for two years and we tried award charts to try to improve my 7 and 10yr olds behaviour at home. They are well-behaved at school and are both doing well academically,but once they leave the school gate they are disrespectful don.t do as they are told ,really hate the word NO and throw massive tantrums.
