Bedtime is a nightmare. I need to warn him two hours, or more, before. He tends to finally get to bed by 11.30. Tight scheduling and such doesn't work. It seems only that lengthy warning works. Mind you, he keeps yelling to me 'I know!' or such things, or nods a yes, which means he is not listening. My son has been to a mainstream school but I am thinking of homeschooling him for his secondary school years (which start in Aust at age 12/13). I've only just found your website. Maybe I need to start a blog too, to vent my frustrations. Eirene I have a 12 year old high functioning autistic boy. Bedtime is a nightmare. I need to warn him two hours, or more, before.
