[quote=Anonymous]I thought my DC had joint attention until I learned how much joint attention is normal. I'm not saying he has asd but the behavior (which is itself repetitive) makes me wonder. I would get an evaluate by a psychologist who is expert in add and asd, not a dev ped. Have you tried removing him from a room the second he throws? And then doing a re-do. Also praising kazdin style when he doesn't?  You can even use food treats to reward, like pieces of a favorite cereal. Also you might consider whether he has any difficulty playing with objects and doesn't really know what to do with them. My DC had a hard time figuring out how to play with toys that other kids had no trouble with. His way of dealing was to take no interest or try for a second and give up and wander off. I remember a kid in a developmental preschool he was in overt briefly who was destructive like your son. I don't know what his diagnosis was but I suspected asd but I think he had trouble interacting. [/quote]
