son's self stimulating

[Guest guest]

hi I have a 10yr old autistic son(limited verbally) within the last few months

I've noticed him fondling himself more and more and me having to redirect him or

tell him no if it's someplace like at grandparents or even speech therapy.I've

lately noticed he will hump the bed and I have tried to address that also.I've

been telling him he can do that in his private time in his bedroom but not in

front of me or company.I know this is natural but I just don't want it to get

out of hand either.He has not done this is public (as of yet)although I know

some families that have had this problem,mainly at school.So,these are just the

things I'm doing with my son..I don't want him to feel bad or ashamed because it

is " normal " but he needs to understand the appropriate time/place to do this.

Subject: son's self stimulating

Hello!!! I have a son whom is almost 6 yrs old whom is autistic.

He has a self stimulating problem. He humps everything. He will

getundressed and hump the floor, pillows, toys, and sometimes the

guest in our home. I also have a 9 yr old daughter that he tries to do

this to. I have tried to redirect him and this does not always work.

He will get angry, or upset alot and I would like to see if there is

someone out there whom can help.He will meet someone and say " joey and

their name, over and over and try to hump them, and will not give up.

Please tell me that he will out grow this and this will not be a

problem when he gets older!!!! Thank you for your time.

Hi Irma,

Your article is applicable to my son. I have noticed whenever

he has constipation problems he would put his hands in his pants. We

ignored this behaviour (though it is very very embarassing) and

focussed on correcting his constipation. We had success with

homeopathy and for the past 6 months we rarely see this behaviour.
