[QUOTE="Giulia, post: 531393, member: 14306"] Yes it is :D Thank you for the answer. I always ask that because the style of teaching can help a lot. If we find the right way to teach something to someone, then we avoid many, many problems. I also think that you can help him with visual cues. I know that he is very verbal, but the visual cues sustains his verbal skills. So he will remember better what you are teaching him. So I think that it would also help him to get visual cues : they are easier to remember than spoken sentences to him. When you see that he will do something forbidden, like hitting, spitting, why don't you get a pictogram saying "No hitting", "No spitting" etc etc... in front of him ? I know that it looks like a 4yo strategy, but it may help. As he understands better visual cues than spoken sentences, it will make his teaching quicker than if you rely only on spoken sentences. Only my two cents, but I believe that if you go through the most well understood channel, he will learn better and quicker. (to me, it's the absolute contrary : spoken sentences, sounds are easier to remember than visual cues. So, we rely on spoken sentences, sounds... better than visual cues) Also, you can propose a calming box with music (no XBox), balls to crutch, essential oils.... he can carry out and he can calm himself with it. Why don't you propose him to create a plan to calm himself, that he can use when he feels angry ? Only some fine tuns to what you are already doing. Take what you feel best, and leave the rest. It will also complete what you are teaching him, and he may less likely to ask his XBox when angry. [/QUOTE]
