Is Your Autistic Child Avoiding Requests?

Join the editor of Autism Parenting Magazine, Sharon Longo as she discusses Autism and Pathological Demand Avoidance with Dr. Brett J. Novick.

Dr. Brett J. Novick

Think of your child’s anger as a boiling pot of water. If we take the pot off the stove for a few moments, it will stop boiling; place it back on, and it immediately boils back up.

Let it settle to room temperature, and it will take longer to boil again. Similarly, our children’s tempers and bodies need time to return to “room temperature.”
