Tell me this gets better....

[Guest guest]

Our AS son just turned 7, heading into 2nd grade. This summer has been somewhat

brutal - I think he's overall sick of being home, feeling like he's being told

what to do all the time. If he'd listen the first time around, we wouldn't have

to keep telling him what to do =)

He shows all the textbook behaviors with respect to countercontrol and anger

management....both are tough for him. He can get upset over relatively small

issues, and has become verbally abusive when he feels angry/upset/controlled

etc....

Speaking from your experience, will he learn to better manage his emotions as he

gets older?
