Help
I know someone who lives in South Carolina and is having major behavorial issues with her autistic 10 year old. He is violent and harmful to himself and sometimes the other members of the family. She said she has tried every avenue yet can not get additional help for him. I was wondering if anyone knew a little better about what could help the child, he is already medicated. I was thinking more behavorial to help him work through some of this meltdowns. I know Ethan gets that now but from what I gather she's been told there is not much for her to do with him. I find that hard to believe and was looking to try and give her a place to turn for help. She doesn't know what else to do.
Thank you for any info you can give me, I will pass it along.

Three options- from my
Three options- from my favorite to my most doubted:
1. A safe snoozelen room- a room in the house where he can control the input (light, sound, and temperature) that he is receiving through his senses.
2. Walk away and talk later.
3. I've heard that medical marijuana can help- but I just don't see it. The few times I tried it in high school it only made me more angry.
