About Me

A couple of years ago, I found my autistic child locked in a small cold cement cell at his school. The cell had no windows, no furniture, and was slate gray with low lighting. The cell was also sound proofed so parents and teachers outside wouldn’t hear him crying. I am writing this blog as a campaign to change the way these children are perceived and treated in our society.

#27 101 Ways a Teacher Could Help a Child with Autism

Category:  General guidelines when dealing with autistic children

Suggestion #27:  They are not motivated to try to please people that they have just met.  Trying to coax or talk them into something they do not want to do may frustrate them.

My son is very shy when meeting new people, he doesn’t want to look them in the eye or carry on a conversation with them.  This is also true when he meets new adults or care givers that are supposed to be in charge.  Immediately, many adults who are placed in charge of children start to give them directions, even before the child becomes familiar with them.  If the autistic child doesn’t know you, they don’t understand why they should do what you say.  They may find you asking them to do something that is distasteful to them, and they will wonder why they should, or even if they have to listen to you at all.

Think of it from their perspective, if you went into a place and someone you didn’t know started telling you to do something that you didn’t want to, wouldn’t you be irritated?

In other words, try to make the first couple of times that you are in charge of the child as fun as possible, focus on what it is that they like to do.  Have the mother, or a care giver that they are familiar with, let them know the rules and tell them about the less preferred activities.

  2. I have suffered from herpes since I was young. It is only the last few years I got to know so I started to look for a cure. I went to several hospitals but to no avail. So I came here online to see if I could find a cure so I came across a page here a man was sharing testimonies about Dr Ohikhobo for his natural herbs cure for herpes so I decided to give it a try it only took two weeks of me taking his herbs and I was completely cured from herpes. contact Dr Ohikhobo today if you want to be cured from herpes or any kind of disease too .
