Querry: autistic girl age 4.5 yrs hitting behaviour build up hogya hai buht ziyda srf mama ko hit krti hai koi bhi issue ho koi bhi hitting and pinching how to manage plz help

Answer: could be that the girl has issues with her mom which she is unable to express, try to build a positive relationship with the child by engaging in activities she likes to do, don't be in her way when she is angry, give her a ball which she can squeeze to calm down. Keep an eye on her from a distance when she has a melt down.

HOW TO MAKE BEHAVIOUR OBSERVATIONS AT HOME/SCHOOL?

1) identify undesirable behaviours like hiting, screaming, banging, swallowing small objects etc
2) what happened before the undesirable behaviour?
3) how many times did the behaviour occur in a day?
4) how long was it for?

HELPFUL THOUGHTS FOR PROFESSIONALS WORKING WITH SPECIAL NEEDS AT SCHOOL :-

1) The child is having a meltdown, it doesn't define my competency at work, let it be.

2) Each day will be different from the other.

3) Today my goal is to calm the child only.

4) Progress is better than perfection.

5) The child can be upset due to various reasons, let's not personalize.
