We have covered this on a couple of occasions before. Indeed this is one of the most ask questions on our Facebook page AutismTalk. So do have a look here.
So I was delighted to find these two great videos from Tali Berman who is an autism specialist on how to potty and toilet train a child on the autism spectrum.
Toilet training your child with autism spectrum disorder (ASD)? An invitation to take part in a research project from in the Irish Centre for Autism and Neurodevelopmental Research (ICAN).
Irish Centre for Autism and Neurodevelopmental Research
We are running a number of invitations to our readers to participate in research which we hope will greatly benefit the wider autism community on behalf of in the Irish Centre for Autism and Neurodevelopmental Research (ICAN). You can check out their web site here http://www.nuigalway.ie/ican/index.html.
The subject of this study is toilet training and autistic children.
Has your child experienced toilet training difficulties? Or has toileting been successful for your child? The Irish Centre for Autism and Neurodevelopmental Research (ICAN) in National University of Ireland, Galway are interested in hearing about your experiences with toileting a child or adolescent aged 5 to 17 years with autism. We are interested in how being successfully toilet trained or not being toilet trained affects a child’s sleep, gastrointestinal symptoms, adaptive behaviour and quality of life. Even if your child doesn’t have these symptoms, we can still learn a lot from your information on why some children have these symptoms and others do not.
