Hi, I have a son who is over 5 years old and has autism who is still in diapers
Over the past 3-4 months, he's been exhibiting some changes in behavior when it comes to diaper changes. It started with him refusing to acknowledge when he had pooped in his diaper. He wouldn't let me change it and instead would have a major meltdown. He wanted to keep it on and continue doing whatever he was doing. He would happily sit in his dirty diaper all day if I allowed it, as it didn't bother him at all.… read more

Something like this
My son has been having some bad habits. Hitting throwing things yelling ect. We may be putting him on meds. Other parents I spoke with said it made a difference for the better when they did this. What are your thoughts? Hope you all have a blessed day.
My son is 7 and autistic he takes Depakote at night, does anyone know about this medication? It seems like it gives him restless leg syndrome, he is mostly non-verbal.
Hi, my Son is now almost 4 y/o. He was potty trained 3 mos ago, but when he started potty training, ABA taught him to take all lower body dressing off , and done sitting on toilet.
He learned that , but he is not wanting to try in standing , or just put pants/ briefs halfway down. I understand bec he is used to taking them all off.
How can I teach him to do it standing, or train him not to take pants/ briefs all the way?
Pls share some ideas. Thanks.

Maybe practice spitting something like applesauce out in the sink when he is not sick? You can demonstrate and try to make it fun, just so he gets used to the mechanics of doing this. I also keep a… read more
How Do I Stop Diaper Picking?
My daughter sticking her hands down the back of his diaper and picking them and leaving cotton everywhere. I have recently caught her eating it
We ended up using the Little Keeper Sleeper with our son until he was fully out of diapers. A snug fit is key. We went up a size trying to get ahead of a growth spurt, and he was able to pull his… read more
How she does that? I'm so sorry 🤗
