[QUOTE="Blighty, post: 765017, member: 21991"] Hi I'm not an expert around this. With his latest habit what comes to me is that he is seeking a reaction from you. I could be wrong. If you can, I would think trying to not be phased by his reactions and behaviours, not getting drawn in to his games by using a blank face, and using positive reinforcement for when he is helpful. i.e. rewards and praise may help. How would it be to see how long he is happy to sit with the dirty diaper, and say come to me when you want your diaper changed and then we can (some sort of treat), reinforcing when he does this by saying 'wow, you did real good to tell me'. There are probably some great forums for parents of autistic kids who may have experience of this? Sorry that I can't be of much help here. [/QUOTE]
