Anger issues, autism and smart tabs

Good morning from the household Santorinis! I hope you all are doing good! I’m just sitting here, watching my son sit on the floor switching between watching Daniel Tiger, busses on youtube and listen to his favorite Punjabi song. E is half punjab so for me it doesn’t matter 🥰 It’s so cute when he tries to sing along to the song. I sent video to his father last night of E trying to sing along so he called me and had that broken voice (when you are happy crying) and I said that E is showing more interest of his culture. So here we go when my husband comes home! Exciting!

My husband is a Sikh but we have together agreed to raise E neutral so he can when he is older decide if he wants to be a Sikh, Muslim, Christian or anything he wants. Sometimes we have culture crash between husband and I but we work it out.

Happy child = happy mother.

E has his tab for the first time in 4 months. Before he had the tab all the time(weekends) til he developed anger issues when giving it back for bedtime so me and my husband agreed to remove the tab from him for a while and today I decided to try see how it works. Wish me luck.

we did not punish him for his anger issues. We were consulting with cps (you get automatically involved with them when your child get a diagnosis) and the special hospital (for autism etc) and we all agreed on removing the tab for a while. We have been talking, explaining, used sign languages and pictures to explain why he got mad, what happened to him etc. Unfortunately the school doesn’t listen to what we all have been telling him so they have allowed him using theirs etc but at home it has been fine. So hopefully this will go fine as well.

How is your Sunday?
