It's even more important for us to know how to deal with frustration and conflicts and setbacks.
And you know what they say about kids with autism, if you've met one kid with autism, you've met one kid with autism.
Yeah.
Right.
Yeah.
So as a parent it's very challenging to figure out how your child is experiencing the world and why they're doing what they're doing and what it's reasonable to expect of them.
And what I noticed, um, especially when my kids were were younger, is that most of the information and the programs that are set up for these kids
They address the behavioral issues of kids on the spectrum.
in a way that I would I think of as behavior modification, like giving them stickers and rewards and consequences and timeouts, that sort of thing.
And to me it seems like these methods don't acknowledge the full humanity of these kids.
It's it's they're treating them as people to be managed or people to be controlled.
And I'm trying to help people see their child as more than just a problem to be controlled and managed and manipulated.
You know, clearly to some extent we all have to manage our children and maybe we all have the ultimate goal that our kids will be well behaved so life will be pleasant for all of us.
But the how to talk approach encourages people to start by seeing the world through their children's eyes and to imagine what their children are experiencing.
If we start with that, then I think it becomes easier to affect their behavior.
Because we're not fighting with them.
We're we're not saying to ourselves
This kid won't sit still.
I've got to figure out ways to make him sit still so he doesn't drop food all over the living room.
We're saying, This kid doesn't want to sit still.
