[quote=Anonymous]Make jokes. Use humor to defuse tense situations, where appropriate. I find doing this gently can really help when one of my kids is in a temper. Our two kids are both hilarious, including our daughter who may be on the spectrum. Her neuropsych actually mentioned how good it is for her to grow up in a household with lots of joking and humor, because it helps her with rigidity and being literal. She has also developed deadly comic timing, like when she witnessed her grandparents dogs viciously attack each other and all of us were really shaken and speechless. After a pause, she said “well, that’s why we’re cat people.”[/quote]
