I think you should have an FBA (functional behavior analysis) done to try to determine what is causing these behaviors. Once the root cause has been determined the team can figure out ways to modify the behavior. There are time when the problem isn't actually what you think it is. Sometimes incentives related to an Aspie's special interest do help and we have used them to positively reinforce desired behavior. He might also need other supports and modifications. Is he getting O.T. in school? My Aspie also avoids handwriting at all costs so I can sympathize with you.
