Important tips for parenting a child with autism.
- Be consistent with your child - Constantly practice at home the same exercises or things he/she has learned during therapy or a counselling session.
- Have a pre-planned schedule for your child and work according to that - Autistic children perform way better when they are in a constant highly-structured routine.
- Appreciate your child when he/she performs well with an exercise. Positive reinforcement is a long way forward with these children.
- Keep a safety zone in the house for your child to relax.
- Look out for non-verbal cues and get better with them.
- If your child throws a tantrum, try to patiently understand the reason for it. - Many times, children with ASD are hypersensitive to light, sound, touch, taste and smell, while some are “under-sensitive” to sensory stimuli.
- It is also very important to be observant of your child’s behavior, the triggers that affect them adversely, the things that they would enjoy, their strengths, weaknesses, etc.
- As a parent, you must also know the best form of learning for your child.
- Most importantly, always research well and get an efficient therapist for your child. Do not delay in starting the necessary treatment.
- Be it therapists or educationists, parents should honestly share their observations with them so that the professionals can accordingly tailor the program for the child.
- Always read, reach out to experts and educate yourself about autism.
- Go for counselling sessions together.
- Always be supportive and involved.
- It is very crucial and significant for parents and professionals to work in collaboration for the benefit of the child. This ensures that the child gets faster and better results.
