Autism parenting
I recently came across this post from Dr Michelle Garnett and Professor Tony Attwood which is very helpful as always, a few points that I found really work for us:
walk and don’t talk – go for a walk with the student and allow them to talk. To say whatever they like, without interrupting. Do not react or engage in a conversation. Do not become confrontational. Just listen until they have calmed down.
Social Stories – from Carol Gray, which are a great resource http://carolgraysocialstories.com/social-stories/
Don’t discuss anything until the kid has calmed down – trying to have a calm rational discussion about what they SHOULD have done, or how they could have RE-INTERPRETED the cues, is about as likely to succeed as having a rational conversation with an angry hippopotamus.
