To PandS, thank you very much.

My Son Won't Keep His Hands Out Of His Pants. Any Tips?
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

As embarrassing as it's becoming my son is always trying to play with his privates. It's so much we are having a hard time taking him anywhere without getting disgusted looks. Im sure it's a sensory issue. I've looked for abnormalities but there's nothing and his Dr doesn't have anything to say. He's only 8 so it seems a bit young to be going thru puberty. But I need some advice please.

How Much Will You Spend On Christmas Toys This Year?
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

All I want for Christmas is in the Playroom
Toys! Toys, toys, toys and more toys! There is nothing wrong with toys. I’m not one for spending big on Christmas. But, I don’t pass judgment on anyone who does. Some people believe it is child neglect if you don’t spend at least $1000 every season on all of your child’s requested favorites. If you don’t have that kind of money you shouldn’t even be a parent they reason. It’s all about making them happy and seeing their smile as they unwrap presents.… read more

Pour salt in a cookie tray! We call it "snow" and both my boys (4 and 2) can sit for a good while drawing and rolling their cars through it. Then when they want to "erase" the tracks, they give the… read more

How Can I Get My Almost 4 Year Old To Poop In The Toilet?
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

He is completely pee trained, morning and night. He doesn’t want the pull up anymore. He won’t poop in the toilet, but also is fighting the pull-ups. He’s now gone 2 days without pooping and he is in pain. He keeps saying no like booboo and take booboo, while holding his stomach. And he wants me to pick him up and thinks cream will make the pain go away so he keeps applying cream on his stomach 😢
I don’t know how to help him poop. Any suggestions? I’ve tried bribery and he isn’t motivated by tv… read more

To a child, that's a huge hole, enough to swallow them.
I can only guess to My Son it was the noise, or the splash of water on the butt that startles them.

Best Toys For 2yo With Autism Who Puts Everything In Their Mouth?
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

Christmas is rolling around so I'll be doing a toy clean out and I want to get my baby a few toys that could help her learn and not overstimulate her. The biggest problem is that she puts EVERYTHING in her mouth. So if you have kiddos who also do this and you have safe toy recommendations, please let me know! Thank you!

A MyAutismTeam Member

if your little one likes blocks or likes to stack things. I've gotten my daughter the Mega blocks. They are easy to clean. LeapFrog have a pretty good line of Toys that are kid friendly.

Is There Anything I Can Do To Keep My 3.5 Year Old From Staring At Bright Lights?
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

My son is just fascinated with lights--has been from infancy. He didn't face gaze--he light gazed. We often get on him to stop looking directly into a halogen light or even the sun!! I'm afraid this is going to lead him to blindness at some point, but I am at a loss as to what to do about it.

A MyAutismTeam Member

try different colored bulbs or different colored glasses(or lenses) that he can look through when staring at the light to make it more interesting and protect his eyes more.
