[quote=Anonymous]Have you tried being proactive as in “Larlo, I’m about to have a conversation with Aunt Midge? First, is there anything you need? And second, if something does come that you need or want to share, remind me what you’ll say.” Additionally, try interactive modeling with him. Sit down with another person. Say, “So it’s important to know how to ask for something when you see I’m talking with someone else. You and dad talk, and I’ll show what it looks and sounds like.” Have them talk, and then you model how you want him to interrupt appropriately. Then ask him, “So what did you see me do? What did I say?” Keep it in the positive. Refrain from statements like “I didn’t yell.” Instead say, “I used a calm inside voice.” Then have him practice. Give specific feedback, again stating in the positive: “I noticed you waited until Dad looked at you and said, ‘Larlo did you need something?’” He’ll get it. Just help him out BEFORE he engages in the behavior. [/quote]
