Prevention of asthma attack 

I am afraid your question is incomplete and therefore difficult to answer. You have asked for tips on preventing an attack of some kind, but failed to specify which kind of attack this is. Since you have mentioned an attack, I guess you are referring to an asthma attack.

If you are taking about an asthma attack then you should ensure that you and your son stay away from the factors which cause the symptoms of asthma. If you are allergic to smoke or dust, then you should stay away from those. If strong smells cause trouble, then you should avoid things with a strong smell.  Avoid eating heavy meals late at night. You should ensure that neither of you eats fried, spicy food since this will only aggravate your condition. Instead you should eat light food, which is cooked in very little oil.  Always eat early at night and give your self a couple of hours to digest the food before you go to bed. Light soups or salads are the best things to eat at night. Periodically sipping warm water will help you too. Some regular breathing exercises can help you prevent an attack. However, you will need the guidance of a professional teacher before you start on these exercises.
