I would do the crib thing unless he could get out then!! My AS child was 3 before he climbed out but my NT boy was only 11 months!! To: "autism-aspergers " <autism-aspergers > Sent: Tuesday, January 17, 2012 2:49 PM Subject: Re: How to discipline.....

Yeah I've tried holding his hands when he raises them to hit, If I can catch him in time and It really just pissed him off. And everything I keep finding about discipline is for older children so its kinda hard. I actually asked his dr. yesterday and she have me a paper about it but again its for older children.

at 16 months I would put him in his crib if he can't get out or in his room . They have a basket hold which works for little tots but sometimes touch really makes them worse so you would lneed to talk with a doctor about that

I do that too and it usually works. But be careful the first time I tried that with Ella she threw her head back and knocked out my eye tooth out. The blanket wrap (burrito wraps) works well for us too. To: "autism-aspergers "

Really? Child abuse? Lol, didnt say to drown him in the bath tub. Are the

kids going to melt like the witches on Wiz of Oz. Didnt say Chinese water

either. Never known a little water to hurt a child unless it was too hot or too

cold.

From someone with Aspergers and mom of at least 2 kids with autism/aspergers...i

would NOT recommend to throw water on them!  I know that would just make me and

my kids more mad than we were already! Plus in some places that would be

considered child abuse

 

Throw some freezing cold water on him? Do you think that will calm him?

[Guest guest]

I'm laughing about the squirt bottle idea. I think squirting him with cold water

would just escalate my son (if someone did that to me it would make me furious),

but I can't help but think how nice it would be to have a squirt bottle of cold

water on my desk at work for when people get testy. :-)

Well its not so much that I think as it is he just doesnt try too climb out.

None of my kids did. Probably do to the fact that I never leave them in their

crib long enough to find out how.

, With all due respect, tell your Mom to go dunk her head in a bucket of cold water! You are doing the BEST you can, all of us are! I hear it from my Mum all of the time how I am too lax with my son, that I need to discipline him more! This, needless to say, has started more than a few fights. I love her, but she drives me nuts sometimes and I will NOT let her walk over me! He is my child and I will raise him as I see fit. Period! Life was different back when they were raising us- ADHD and autism were virtually unknown. I do try to keep

that in mind as I explain for the umpteenth time about autism. Hang in there and stand your ground! Remind her that while you would appreciate her input, you are an ADULT now and are more than capable of making your own good, sound decisions! We are here for you.Mark
