I have lots of friends who react in similar ways. One youngster throws everything around him, and another bites and hits like your son. I usually make up social stories, using names of familiar people in most cases. I talk about times when they were kids, but make the story match the circumstances. Send me an e-mail with a few details and we can compose a story together. My e-mail is http://talk@FAQautism.com Hope your day is full of joy! + Cathy Good morning, Houria.

My son has a problem accepting failure, especially with Gamecube, and Gameboy. When he moves to higher/difficult levels, and he loses he would bite his finger, and hit anything he finds in front of him. His brother helps all the time, but Yunes does not pay attention to the steps to learn, he just wants his brother to rescue the situation so he can continue playing. So, we have the same problem repeated again and again. A social story sounds like a good idea. I will search the net for one, but I will appreciate it very much if you can e-mail me a social story dealing with Games, if it's handy. I am enjoying your post and developped a habit to looking for your message every morning. Thank you Houria Dear Cathy,
