Convert the bane of a typical autistic behavior into therapy:
Every child’s autism is different and unique, however, there are also many common traits. One of the most frustrating and dangerous is what I call the deaf run. This is where the child will bolt from a parent’s hand for some desired object. Normal children do this as well,

Planning for Summer Childcare
Planning for Summer Child Care by Sheila Marcelo. Sheila Lirio Marcelo is the founder and CEO of Care.com.
Summer will be here before you know it. Our little ones are counting down the days until school lets out (less than six weeks in many school districts!). When that happens, families will have to fill anywhere from eight to ten hours a day of child care. Summer isn’t only a difficult time to plan and arrange child care, it’s also the most expensive part of the year. The average family can spend up $7,000 per child during the summer months. That’s half of their annual child care budget! I asked our Care.com members if they planned on cutting back for the summer. In this economy, it wasn’t surprising to see that 75 percent planned to find money-saving alternatives this year.

Do your children believe what you say? Francis McSweeny PHD.
Do your children believe what you say?
If you’re reading this I know you care about your children, yet your love and caring doesn’t insulate you from problems. Occasionally or more frequently, your children will not listen to you. Why is that? You’re a reasonable person making reasonable requests, yet they don’t listen. There are many reasons why that may happen. Sometimes it is merely and age thing. Infants don’t have the control over their behavior so I’m not talking about them. Older children are exploring their world and finding their limits. Children of any age are finding out the rules of life and in your home. They will push until they hit a wall that doesn’t move. That is why they behave for some people and not for others. You can explain the rules to them but rules aren’t rules unless they are enforced, and many parents are so busy that many rules are sometimes overlooked. If you tell them something is a rule, and sometimes they don’t follow the rule and nothing happens, then it is not a rule. The wall keeps moving. They learn that they don’t need to listen.
