It could be the meds he is on , it has been shown that children on certain meds do show some behavioral habits out of the norm' I think that if you speak to your prescribing Doctor and tell him ask about adjusting the dosage or changing the med .If he is only in time out at school when he does it ,its from frustration, do they put him in time out a lot and what for ?
