What do you do when your 16 year old autistic son is still so dependent on you, but outwardly looks like he can care for himself so that others and even myself wonder if he’s just manipulating me? And on top of that is having anger outbursts and aggression towards me? Is he just having a very bad attitude like people tell me (and say I’m enabling him and I should send him to live with his dad) or do I continue to let him live with me and thus how to make him more independent at 16? And not be aggressive with me
That sounds like a very challenging situation for you and your son. One of our wonderful faculty members, Jule Epp, who has a son on the autism spectrum herself, is running our course, Making Sense of Hypersensitivity, this fall. She has a lot to share, and you may find the course material helps you to see what is going on with your son. In case you are interested, here is a link for more information: neufeldinstitute.org/event/making-sense-of-hypersensitivity/
@@neufeldmedia that looks like I need it, I will look into it further thank you
Its too disjointed to understand.. Just honest feedback.
This short preview video is just a sneak peek to give you a taste of the webinar series topics. We hope you'll join us to unpack it!
It's not an entry-level talk. You'll notice that Part IV talks about Dependence in Adulthood. Dr. Neufeld's work has been moving in the direction of adult attachment, from his original epicenter of infant, child, and teen attachment. I got the gist, because this describes my situation now. Dr. Neufeld said "When a society loses its grandparents, it starts to go downhill from there". Western grandparenting culture has largely become a "Your kid, not my problem anymore" kind of situation. The grandparents leave their adult children to their own devices and are reluctant to care for grandchildren, thinking that their time is done. My parents have this attitude. They consider their attachment obligations to me done after paying for my last semester in college. Then they wonder why I don't take advice from them now the few times they try to interfere in how I raise my child. Or why my child doesn't automatically give them closeness and comfort the rare times we see them. Attachment is a two way street, and dependence is a PRIVILEGE adult children give to the elders who don't neglect their attachment bonds. Many Boomers today want the privileges of attachment without having to work for it--- from their children and grandchildren. I still see other families where adult dependence is still an unbroken chain, and the elderly parents still take delight in their adult children's presence around them. This talk is for those who are ready to hear it. I've had to work on growing my own attachment roots that were either weak or missing from how I was brought up. I've been reparenting myself and raising my own child using Dr. Neufeld's work. The sections in the short video will speak to those who are ready for the material. Maturation is the prerequisite for Wisdom.
