[quote=Anonymous]We are still struggling with this. I have not found Kazdin or Shapiro to help much--he cannot focus on a future reward when he is that upset. Here's what has helped: -- medication -- removal from situation (you can't be around others when you are this out of control of your body. You will need to go to your room until you are calm. Go voluntRily and it will be a shorter time in your room.) -- talking through things in advance--how much longer do you want with that toy? Okay, that's reasonable, I will set a timer. What are you going to do when the timer buzzes? Do you want a wRning when you are close to the end of your time? Etc etc.). (What if your sister knocks down your tower? What are you going to do?). You need to explicitly teach how to transition and how to deal with frustration. -- we've also used some of the books designed for kids about anger. Seems to help but I'm not sure how much.[/quote]
