First post here, and it's about my nephew, who has just turned 4 and was diagnosed about 2 months ago with autism.
My dsis is still coming to terms with all of this, and I'm trying just to be a sounding board for her. But she was telling me yesterday that the latest thing is taking off his seatbelt in the car and how he is impervious to be told off about it. She also tried a light smack, in desperation, but no success (unsurprisingly!). In the end she had to make her dh sit in the car next to him, as it was important, and she can't exactly pull her dh away from work every time.
Does anyone know of a way of stopping him taking his seatbelt off? It's a 5-point harness thing.
