[quote=Anonymous]from the johns hopkins post referenced above I’ve noticed that my son stops flapping his arms if I distract him by saying his name. Should I keep doing this? Motor stereotypies cease with distraction, but we strongly advise that this type of awareness training should be conducted as part of formal behavioral treatment program. When a child is frequently alerted of his movements outside of a formal therapy setting, there is a concern that it could lead to psychosocial problems. The best approach is to pursue formal treatment with a behavioral therapist.[/quote]
