I've had a recurring problem with my son pooping in his diaper, not telling me, and then attempting to change it himself. Which....apraxic with difficulties in motor planning = poop smeared on the bed, the floor, the...everything. I've tried calmly explaining. I've tried reasoning. As of Sunday evening, when I stepped in poop on his bedroom carpet......yelling. Loudly. None of these techniques (ha, ha, HA!) have been effective for getting him to tell me he needs his diaper changed.
I'm going to have to resort to taking his iPad away. Which? Will be SO much harder on me, than on him. It's what he does. While he's never been officially diagnosed with Autism, he's definitely on the spectrum. He watches YouTube videos. That's what he does. Hopefully that's why taking it away will be effective? Please? Wish me luck.
