Calm Minds: Managing Hitting Behaviors in Children with ADHD and Autism
Gain practical strategies to understand and manage hitting and other violent behaviors in children with ADHD and Autism, fostering a safer and more supportive environment.
To help your child make meaningful progress, consistency and patience are key. Here are some suggestions to ensure you get the most out of this course:
Establish a Daily Routine: Set aside a fixed time every day to practice the strategies and activities taught in this course. A consistent schedule helps your child feel secure and prepared, and it reinforces positive habits.
Start Small and Build Gradually: Begin with one or two activities each day, especially if your child struggles with transitions or lengthy sessions. Once they get comfortable, gradually introduce more techniques over time.
Be Patient and Persistent: Progress takes time. Stick with the routines and activities for at least 2-3 months to start noticing significant changes. Remember, even small improvements are steps forward.
Create a Calm and Supportive Environment: Reduce distractions and ensure that the setting is stress-free while working on activities. Celebrate small wins and avoid showing frustration, as this will encourage your child to stay engaged.
Tailor the Approach to Your Child's Needs: Adapt activities to fit your child’s preferences, strengths, and triggers. What works for one child might need tweaking for another—this is normal.
Track Progress: Keep a simple journal or use a checklist to monitor how your child responds to different activities. Note what works well, what needs adjustment, and any changes in behavior over time.
Collaborate with Professionals: If your child is working with a therapist, share the activities and techniques from the course with them. Their input can help tailor strategies further and amplify results.
Stay Positive and Consistent: Children pick up on the energy around them. Maintaining a positive attitude and showing consistency in your efforts will motivate your child to stay engaged and build trust in the process.
