4:26\xa0My son with ASD & ADHD is almost 13, and in the last few weeks his behavior has escalated significantly. We have an urgent appointment with his psychiatrist on Tuesday but I wanted to hear from other parents and experts. He has abruptly begun exploding violently with siblings over such offenses as \u201cshe was whining!\u201d (he spit in 5 y/o sisters food when my back was turned and justified it because she was whining.) I hear a thud and \u2018ow\u2019 from 3 year old in the other room. \u201cHe was going too slow on the stairs!\u201d (He hit him into the wall.) I don\u2019t know what to do. I am terrified that he will seriously injure a siblings. All I can think of is the next time this happens we go to the hospital because I don\u2019t know what else to do. please help me

18:48\xa0We are dealing with aggression. If my son is told \u201cno\u201d or can not do what he wants when he wants he tells us \u201cyou don\u2019t love me anymore? I\u201dm going to leave and not come back.\u201d How do we curb this? Not to mention he does throw things and hits but not all the time.

53:20\xa0My non-verbal almost 3 year old son is still breastfeeding periodically through the day and night and is still sleeping in our bed. He\u2019s also a terrible eater and never tells me when he\u2019s hungry other than my assumption when he pushes me towards a chair and tries lifting my shirt. I don\u2019t really know where to begin to wean him because I don\u2019t know what he understands and I know he uses it for comfort. He wakes up several times a night to nurse and switch sides which means I\u2019m awake too and getting angry that I\u2019m not getting sleep. What do I do?
