[quote=Anonymous]You really have to take him on a consistent schedule. Have him sit for 5 minutes or until he goes. If he doesn’t go you try sitting again in 5-10 minutes. If he does go you can wait 30 minutes before trying again. Really push liquids. It’s a ton of work but just really about time and effort and consistency. ABA can help with this as you’ll need to identify reinforcers and ways to help him sit. I’ve toilet trained about 50 kids with autism, both verbal and non verbal, and it always goes back to consistency. It takes a lot of time in the beginning you just can’t get frustrated. You basically feel like you’re living in the bathroom for awhile but it does get easier as they learn and you can space out time between bathroom opportunities.[/quote]
