From learning new routines, to knowing when it’s time to use the toilet, to being able to manipulate clothing, the potty training process can take many years for some children with autism to become experts. Keep in mind that children with autism are all very different and master skills at different times. Download our FREE guide here:
Is your child with Autism NOT yet toilet trained? Have you tried all possible measures, but none seem to work? While most online resources claim to provide an easy fix for this challenge, they don’t always consider the challenges involved in training kids with developmental disabilities.
Not only do kids with Autism learn differently, they are also completely unique in their personalities and behaviors. So why use the same one-size-fits-all potty training strategies?
As a parent, you might be well aware of the unique challenges that your child with ASD faces on a day-to-day basis, like:
• Sensory sensitivities
• Communication difficulties
• Self-confidence issues, and
• Short attention spans
– Just to name a few.
