I talked to Nisonper Behavior Support System. I talked to someone who has a patient  with Fragile X Syndrome. I asked them how it is working with them and what is hard on him. They told me that he has difficulties transitioning into different things. Like going to the store and then going somewhere else like getting gas. They have then created a everyday schedule for him so he knows step by step what he will be doing. Behavioral wise they said he can get very upset and when this happens he starts to hit. When they notice that he is about to get upset, they take him to a quite area and gets him to clam down so he doesn't hit anybody. They have worked with him on transitions in everyday life and controlling his emotion. This is just some actions taken by one person who is diagnosed with Fragile X Syndrome and not everybody is the same. But this is an example of what daily life is with a person who had Fragile X.
