Hi! I'm the parent of a special needs child who is becoming too hard to parent my child.

Asked 9 months ago - Snellville, GA

Currently I have 28% custody of him. My son is autistic and he is becoming physically abusive to me when he's under my care. He's 14, non-verbal and gets in rages where he will hit me and pull my hair. I've addressed this to my ex-husband and he says to just "deal". I'm becoming frightened over this as my son is getting bigger. Please help me.

    I hope this information helps answer your question(s).
