new to being an aide
im a special ed aide, im very new i just started 3 days ago with no experience. im in a severe special ed class (6 boys all around 3rd grade). im very scared about the hitting. im autistic myself and i dont do well with violence or hitting or just the uncertainty of when it will happen. we have a student who is very unpredictable and will go from being calm to turning to you and smacking you hard. it scares me alot & im just wondering any tips for this. i have bad reflexes & just need tips. i do love all of the students so much i just have a hard time with unpredictable violence
