[QUOTE="mazdamama, post: 504125, member: 12227"] And sometimes you just have to ignore it. I have had to learn what battles to fight and which one are too minor to bother with. Sounds as though it is really something he cannot control with all his issues. When I was in nursing school one of the things we were taught was "if you cannot change the behavior of someone you need to change your reaction to it". Hard to do and I know it. Your V is young yet and will learn things as he grows, I know my David who is also autistic does ALOT of things I don't like. Some...well, the ones I know he is doing on purpose get responded to with a consequence but ones I know he cannot control I have learned to ignore. Recently he has developed a tic...he is constantly clearing his throat and I mean constant. Pedi found nothing wrong and he will see the neurologist later this month. It drives me bonkers to hear it but I knwo he is incapable of stopping it so I just try to block it from my mind. [/QUOTE]
