This year is the first time since finding out DS is ASD/AS that we are having to tackle fireworks.
DS is PETRIFIED of fireworks, if he hears them he puts his hands over his ears,screams and runs off, in the past before we knew about his Autism we used to laugh at him and tell him not to be soft .
I cant believe we used to do that but, we didnt know,anyway i just wondered if you could tell me how you manage your Autistic childs fear of fireworks/loud noises as we dont seem to be helping DS much.
TIA
