I've never had much tolerance for hitting but with children you do have to remember that children in general have a hard time when it comes to feelings and dont know what they are feeling or how to act on that feeling. in children with autism its even more harder. Im on the spectrum and I struggled with it and even now I struggle with it and im in adult. My son is 2 but hes always been fussy and have long tantrums and stuff since he was born. I have had quite a few looks from people but he is still non verbal, though he does say maybe 6 words or less, he mostly screams, cries and screeches. people should be less judgmental and more understanding.Autism momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16700044329189566369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7104405064661411637.post-3909882794263710192017-09-01T22:22:47.605+10:002017-09-01T22:22:47.605+10:00I am so glad that I'm not the only one!I am so glad that I'm not the only one!Raising My Little Superheroeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00226884350766813122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7104405064661411637.post-68401421062408437982017-09-01T22:21:25.461+10:002017-09-01T22:21:25.461+10:00Thank you.

But that is always followed by the recognition of what he might be feeling and other ways to cope. I agree that it is important for children to learn not to hit, but it is important for parents to understand the purpose behind it and help children learn to process emotions. You are right, it is most often not done out of disrespect, but frustration.

My two year old has been in a phase of hitting when she is upset or tired or angry lately and I have been working tirelessly to teach her that it is not okay. I worry about what people think when she does this in public, and I hate that people are so judgmental about things they don't understand! I recognize that my daughter's actions are because she doesn't know yet how else to show her emotions, and we are working on that. I wish more people understood this.

It's our job as parents to work through these emotions. One big lesson I got through parenting is that you just can't judge any other parent. Each situation is unique and a passerby can't understand family dynamics and life just looking st one moment on the street.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08275541369339956325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7104405064661411637.post-80200549041121731022017-08-31T22:33:52.686+10:002017-08-31T22:33:52.686+10:00So while I can see your view point especially for ...So while I can see your view point especially for special needs kids who don't know any better, I think there is a deeper conversation that needs to be had. Maybe from their perspective, they have watched kids overall get more and more disrespectful to parents, and hitting them is a way not to express an emotion but to throw an tantrum until they get what they want? Now, again, special needs kids really are the exception imho. They don't know better nor can compherend it.Via Bellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03202786113726902244noreply@blogger.com
