His Dad and I work hard to get my step-son to calm down. He does the hand flapping/arm flailing; has trouble with speaking to fast and not making sense. We use the words, "control it" to signal that it's time for him to clasp his hands together, count to 10; take deep breaths. This works for the hand flapping/arm flailing. As for the fast, stumbling speech, we tell him to stop speaking, take deep breaths and count to 10. This seems to work very well for my step-son and he has greatly improved.

We use a lot of consistency, rewards, and consequences. Some days it works and other days it doesn't work so well.

School is providing accomodations and behavioral support for me starting in the fall. I have to attend the Learning Centre twice a week and get tutoring.
