Thank you so much for these tips. I am a teacher and I have some students with autism with some sever behaviors.this video has helped immensely for a particular situation. Another topic for discussion is headbanging. My student does this frequently and I can't seem to pinpoint the cause.
Kindly tell mam can these stimmming behaviour can be permanently controlled as my son do lot of hand flapping when he sees revolving things i do give me compression n brushing daily + ot is going on from 5 months but couldn't see much difference. Plz guide what else can I do or these behaviour are lifelong?
Hello Please understand how is hand flapping related to brushing and compression? If we need to modify a stimming behaviour, it is important to understand why it happens, when it happens and if there is a sensory need behind it like visual seeking. OT should cater to specific sensory needs of your child.
Mam my daughter 6 years mild autisum she can speak .. she can sitting with me 20 minets when she calm.. like touch ragi or rice flour and put into bottle, or buds painting, or paper cutting but... When she go to school she is not sitting 10 seconds.. complaint by teacher .. what i do mam
Usually when a child does not get the same attention at school, they move around. Let her practice sitting at home without activity also, starting with 2-3 minutes and gradually increasing time. Combine it with waiting for meal, you getting her activities while she waits in chair so that her sitting tolerance gets better.
