I will be using these techniques and will feel relieved to be able to go out in public feeling confident about how to handle his behavior. The Magic Train Book: How I Motivated My Autistic Son to Sit Quietly in Church - Blog Entry27 Mar 2009 12:21 PM My husband and I have not been attending our church services for the past three months. Our seven year old has autism and has not been able to adjust to the children's church kindergarten class since the original teacher left. We've tried having him sit with us in the adult service, but one of us always had to be out in the foyer with him. The worship part of the service was uncomfortable for his ears, so we didn't mind missing the beginning portion of the service because we could hear it from the foyer. We miss attending the service as a couple, so your method of getting your son to sit quietly in church is such a spiritual lifesaver!! I'll have to figure out a few of his favorite things and use a book he really enjoys. It's encouraging to know that sometimes the behavior gets worse before it gets better. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences with us! |
