agressive child

I have a friend with a five year old son with mild Autism, recently his son have been behaving very agressive toward him and his older brother who is six years old, he throws things and he throw himself on the floor or on the road if they are out side, when he does not gets his own way? Please help he takes good care of his children. Concern friend.

As for the tantrums, my daughter still has them and she is 13. She has gotten much better though. When she was young and would do this, I would carry her to her bed and sit with her until she calmed down. If we were outside, I got her to a quiet place. Sometimes the problem is sensory overload. I think the most important thing that we did with her was to treat her just like we treated our other kids. We didn't look the other way when she hurt her brother and we didn't give into her.
