💡 Connection before correction.
When kids are overwhelmed by big emotions, their brains are in survival mode. That means lectures, discipline, and problem-solving usually won’t land yet.
First we connect. Then we teach.

Try scripts like:

• “I can see you’re really upset right now.” • “That was really frustrating, huh?” • “I’m here with you. Let’s take a minute.” • “Your feelings make sense.” • “Let’s calm our bodies first and then we’ll figure this out together.”

When kids feel understood, their nervous systems start to settle and that’s when they’re able to learn, listen, and repair.

Connection doesn’t mean there are no limits. It means we help regulate first, then guide behavior.

Let's talk about stimming.

The autistic community advocates that stimming behavior is a self-regulatory coping mechanism, and efforts to control this behavior could have negative effects for autistic people. Research exploring stimming from the autistic perspective supports this position and suggests these behaviors are actually incredibly beneficial.

There is a long history in both research and clinical practice, of efforts to reduce, minimize or eliminate stimming behavior in autistic people.
