A few thoughts come to mind that have worked for us. Giving Joshua extra attention other times if thats what we think he is asking for. asking Joshua what he wants when he is doing the behavior we would like changed. I am often suprised at how he might be in the middle of a fairly destructive behavior and how if I ask that question he will answer. Guessing what joshua wants and responding to that. Looking at ways we can give Joshua more control. As he understands more we sometimes forget that he can now participate more. And....looking at our reactions and moving to a more comfortable place with our childs behavior no matter what the behavior. I have found this so powerful. I have moved through situations where someone could get hurt and it turns out fine. The calmer I am the better I can come up with a solution that works for my child given the way he processes. Sometimes it takes many trips through the behavior to find the solution. For me being comfortable when I dont know what to do is challenging. Hope this is helpful. Lisa
