189. Breaking the Cycle; Managing Explosive Behavior
In episode 189 of the Not Your Average Autism Mom podcast, Shannon tackles the challenging topic of explosive behavior as a form of escape behavior in
children with autism. She explains why these behaviors often occur due to frustration, sensory overload, or discomfort and highlights the importance of
understanding why your children feel the need to escape.
Shannon shares practical strategies for managing these behaviors, including lowering demands, providing support, and teaching alternative communication, such as
using words or hand signals to indicate the need for a break or help. She emphasizes the importance of matching interaction styles to the child's needs
and reinforcing new, appropriate behaviors through consistent practice and positive reinforcement.
By adjusting the environment and reinforcing appropriate behaviors, you can help your children feel more in control and less overwhelmed. Shannon emphasizes the
need for patience and consistency, reminding listeners that progress takes time and consistency, but reassures you that you are doing amazing on this sometimes
challenging journey.
Tune in to learn effective ways to navigate and manage explosive behaviors while supporting your child's unique needs.
