The author does a great job of addressing this topic of discipline with autistic children -- much better than I could do.

I agree and felt very much validated by your suggestions. my question is this: when you do realize it is a discipline issue and not a sensory issue(other from disability) how do you discipline? Spanking doesnt work, cross looks dont work... so then how... ? I have followed some suggestions from the book Sheperding a Child's Heart. I had my daughter memorize Ephesians 6:1, but im fiding that the behaviors keep happening... mostly talking back ( saying No, sripting angrily, speaking rudely). She will submit at the moment but the next time it happens all over again.... its definitely not a routine she's developed its a very natural and rebellious response.. I would appreciate your thoughts.. Blessings Sandra hi Sonya

I don't think a baby is likely to comprehend "No" at this age. My general guideline has been that when a baby is nine months old, he or she is old enough to understand and respond to "No." Hi, Lisa -

I have question about my 3 month old baby boy. It seems that our son is quite demanding in ways; doesn't just cry for food when it's time to eat but screams, kicks and flails. His mood can change from happy, giggly and baby talk to annoyance / anger / crying. I am wondering if we need to start to disciplining him, like saying a gentle but firm NO to things he may do. At this age, is he at all likely to comprehend what we are trying to communicate to him? He basically has us at his beck and call 24/7 and I'm torn between the idea how a tiny infant can't manipulate but is just needy and when he is being demanding because we come running. I would appreciate your advice. Hi. I have question about my 3 month old baby boy.
