Trigger warning: sex education, maybe tmi
I have a beautiful 18 year old son who is the light of my life and for the most part we have navigated his level 3 non verbal autism relatively well with the supports we have in place.
From a young age he has stimmed by grinding on pillows, hands in pants, repetitive movement or vibration like sitting on a sub woofer etc.
He has recently started ejaculating and making a mess at home in the house. (He doesn’t do it publicly or anything like that) But he has a strong reaction to the mess and will not clean it. It sends him in to a meltdown and hence I’m left cleaning it.
Is it appropriate to buy a device for him to do his business and make clean up easier. Or am I making it awkward. Particularly interested in the view of males or mothers who have been through something similar.
Please don’t judge. I’m a single mother doing my best and just want the best for him.
Thank you in advanced
