I’M FURIOUS! A THERAPIST/TUTOR WHO HEARD ME SPEAK AT AN EVENT CALLED to ask me how to STOP AUTISTIC kids from STIMMING because THE BEHAVIORS BOTHERED HER! (rocking, waving hands, burping, etc.) Instead of trying to understand the need for stimming, or seek alternative self soothing strategies, she decided she was going to be the warrior to stop all behaviors. AND I WONDER WHY CHILDREN COME TO ME WITH PTSD!
