[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you model taking responsibility? Do you overreact to small issues? My DS with ASD is a big apologizer but that’s probably because I always apologize when I’m wrong. No person (kid, adult, NT or ND) is going to react well to being forced to apologize or to take the blame for mistakes that is out of proportion to what actually happened. And sometimes people are harder on kids on the spectrum because they put them more under the microscope. [/quote] Not responding to a “small issue” escalates it. Deal with and take responsibility, large or small. Too often the small issue is lied about, then happens again, is lied about, an argument ensures; the lying and omitting get double downed on, and now it’s a two issues. [/quote] If you bring down the hammer disproportionately then the kid will learn to avoid admitting they are wrong. True for NT and ND kids. [/quote]
