Hi
Im looking for suggestions as to how to help DS 3.7 improve his behaviour in a couple of areas.
He has been put on special needs register by state nursery due to challenging behaviour since he started nursery. We have worked closely with them and his behaviour has improved a lot. We are lucky - the nursery are very good. In a nutshell his behaviour has been very disruptive. He hasnt wanted to do what they say at all. He still does things like drawing on furniture, eating playdoh,poking things in other childrens faces.
One of the biggest problems is that he frequently makes lots of inappropriate noises especially when he runs round - often just as if he was meaning to run round and spit in other children's faces. The problem with this is that he has alienated other children in his class by this. He has been invited to no parties, playdates except one yesterday (very kind mum).He seems to have a real problem relating to other children and playing with them. School really emphasize this and I can see what they mean. But he does love the other children, talks about them. He is good at talking to adults. Fortunately we have a lot of non school friends a lot of which he has known from birth. It does not seem to matter as much with them but I have noticed him annoy a couple of them in the past few weeks in that they turned round and stopped playing with him.
There will be a big changeover in September where a lot of new children join the class. I would like to help him relate better to the other children and not be again the child they dont want to play with!
So have you any suggestions how I get DS
: To not make all these noises when running around. He especially want to spit and blow raspberries a lot. Even when told repeatedly and given incentives he will not stop.
: stop poking things in other kids faces. He just will not understand that this annoys them big time. He gets excited about shaking things and it seems connected with this
I hope it is ok to post on this board as he is NT.I would appreciate any help.
