Hi everyone, I am quite shocked to see people's response in the USA is
to use medication to control challenging behaviour. Here in the UK
medication would be a last resort. Challenging behaviour is generally
caused by communication difficulties, so the key is to find a better
way for your child to communicate with you. Also use all the same
methods you would use with non disabled children (naughty chair/praise
for good behaviour/time out etc) and don't let anyone let your child
get away with bad behaviour just because they are disabled.
Good luck, its a challenge for us all!
