Hi Everyone

Asher's new and exciting pastime is now throwing things (after he licks them of

course :-/) How can I address this? He has broken several things including

phones and remotes. I think part of the appeal for him is the sound that things

make as they hit the floor. I am concerned that the baby (who is on the verge of

crawling) is going to be the frequent recipient of bumps and bruises from

Asher's constant tossing things. Daddy, Mojo the Kitty and I have all been hit

by flying objects. Yikes...it's always something isn't it?????

Hi Amy

 

My daughter Amy has finally just stopped doing this.  She broke many things

around our house too.  I wish I could tell you what we did to get her to stop

but I don't know.  It just seemed once she started in school she stopped.  I

too thought it was always a sound thing.  We did get her some toys that make

sounds when she shakes them and she doesn't throw them????

 

Good luck.  I wish I could give you the secret trick to get him to stop!!

Hi there dear Jay, Thinking of you and praying for you.....

I understand the diaper bombs....last night my husband got home from work and

found one in Wesley's room .....I had been cooking and Wes went upstairs ad came

down with a bare bum...his bum did not look dirty so I did not expect the

mess....so my husband was upset while cleaning it and said to me " why don't you

train him? " Well that set off another kind of bomb.....he took the question

back later...

I feel for you truly ...by the way, we are using the halo blankets on Wes....I

stopped for 2 weeks and found myself cleaning poo every day and finally my thick

skull realized that with the halo blankie he could not remove his clothes and

diapers....do you think that is something that you could use for Kez?? Of

sourse it does not train the child but saves you a lot of trouble.....i learned

about these from this group....

Jay,

I'm telling you....duct taping the TV and the VCR to the table is the only way

to go. Duct tape is cheap. TVs are not. And VCRs are getting too difficult to

find. TVs and VCRs may save your sanity and give you a much needed break. I know

she threw the TV out the window one time last year (sorry but our behavioral

asst still thinks this is hilarious....in a bad way). Do I need to send you a

photo of jamie's TV taped to the desk when she was Kez' age? It's lovely

really....sort of has an artsy installation feel to it.

Here's some hugs {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{ Jay }}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}

Sherry

Thanks. The school system is different here in Ontario. But this gives me a good

idea of where to push in our system. The behavior team we

No I don't have an ABA person at home. I'm so broke I can't pay attention. No

money for anything at all so whatever I do I need to do alone.

Single parenting on part time minimum wage is no picnic. Today I feel terribly

frightened and drained. This morning I woke up to a full diaper bomb. Who flung

Poo! It the force of the explosion against the wall.... well you get the stinky

drift.

Spring break here and kids are off school. Thanks for the space to vent.

Jay, My son used to do fecal smearing so I know what you go through. I felt at

times like I was going to have a mental breakdown. When I was working I had to

get up before him take a shower get ready and then get him ready for school.

Many mornings I walked into his room with feces smeared into the carpet, all

over , furniture etc. I would cry and ask God, Why God? Why? I started

putting in pj with the feet cut out because he hated PJ with feet. In the

summer I had PJs made to the knees so could not get to his poop. Now he

know longers does fecal smearing and I know longer have to use Pjs as described.

It will get better. Maybe put a dance unitard on the child if no PJS to keep

from spreading feces. I have listed grants to apply for that I have rec'd but I

do not know if any of these grant givers with do grants outside of the US. I

have rec'd grants from United HealthCare, ACT Today, & TACA. You should try and

really pour out your heart. Is there not anyway to get help from your school

system there? Cyndi B

Sherry,You are so resourceful or have you have been watching MacGyver re-runs.

He loved duct tape to. Hey I know whatever works. I bought t shelf brackets and

put one on each side of 's TV and drilled them into his dresser. He was

about 9 yrs old and they are still holding strong. We would have lost his tv/vcr

combo to his large window if I had not done that. also had this fascination

with throwing 3 toys at one time. He would sling them across the room. has

a small DVD player that I used downstairs in our house. I tought to stop

throwing by not letting him have toys, DVD players unless he was good. The

moment he would start to throw it I took it away. My son was no longer allowed

free access and that helped. He knew he had to be good if he wanted his DVD

player. Good luck. Cyndi B

Oh wow, Emelinne used to do this and it even became a problem at school years

ago. She finally outgrew it. She had to be made to go and pick everything up.

She especially loved throwing things down the stairs. You can imagine the pile

of toys down there. She still throws her stuff in her room when she is done with

it and if she is on the deck will throw whatever she can put her hands on. I can

understand the fun part of it but still.

 Hi and love back at you Annie. 

Never heard of halo blankets.  Just googled.  Couldn't see adult sizes.  She has

grown like crazy all of a sudden!  I don't think she would be hapy in something

like a sack as she gets up and jumps around all thru the night. 

 I need to get adult sleepers again and put them on backwards.  I haven't had

any luck in finding any in her size.    Last night I didn't use masking tape to

attatch her top  to her bottoms.  That will teach me!  She has been waking up

clean and dry so i thought i'd try it.  Back to tape tonight.

 Dear Ducty Doc,

  The tv and vcr were duct taped solidly. ( so I thought)  She throws dresser

and all, thus smashed tv and vcr. 

   Doctor Ducty, would you  prescribe the medicinal use of a duct tape

straight jacket from her shoulders to elbow?.  This would allow for

theraputic dangling but good preventative medicine for gladiator

behavior.   Kezia would enjoy hot pink tape.   Thank you.

 please also prescribe straight jacket for mom.  xxl

Anne, What about using a unitard? No Zipper at all. It is a one piece dance

outfit like a unitard with legs in it.

Ducky Jay...

I marvel at your daughter's superhuman strength... was too weak to

accomplish this. Perhaps the new sport of TVpitching will one day be available

at the Olympics and she can make this all up to you. In this case...yes I would

efinitely rx duct tape from shoulders to elbows. This might get expensive tho.

The staight jacket is on it's way.

Sherry

Dear Ducty Doc,

The tv and vcr were duct taped solidly. ( so I thought) She throws dresser and

all, thus smashed tv and vcr.

Doctor Ducty, would you prescribe the medicinal use of a duct tape straight

jacket from her shoulders to elbow?. This would allow for theraputic dangling

but good preventative medicine for gladiator behavior. Kezia would enjoy hot

pink tape. Thank you.

please also prescribe straight jacket for mom. xxl

has recently taken to putting on his footies (he puts his legs in and

Oh, and for the record, " asks for help with his arms " means that walks

over to me, grabs my hand, puts the jammie neck in them, holds my hand up and

looks for his sleeve. I am a portable coat hook, that's what I am!

, wondering why EVERY TIME I put soap on , he has to pretend it got in

his eye -- pretend or act out or I dunno...it's getting OLD!
