[quote=Anonymous]What would you do if he had a physical difference that meant things took him more time, or he needed supports in order to things? You'd give him more time, and you'd give him those supports. Do the same thing for your child. Timers help some kids, they make vibrating watches. For us, since I'm a clock watcher, I just let my kid know time is passing. She has no idea time is passing, and could spend 20 minutes in the bathroom doing who knows what. If I let her know 5 minutes has passed, that jars her out of her head and gets her moving again. Visual schedules help. Keeping the same routine every day helps. Reminding yourself your kid isn't deliberately messing with you helps.[/quote]
