Deep dives
Underlying Needs and Communication Challenges
The child's persistent use of 'stop' to express discomfort in various situations, even daily, raises the parent's concerns about rudeness and the child's well-being. The behavior is linked to a high need for control and threat response, especially common in autistic individuals. To address this, employing declarative language instead of questions can provide autonomy and diffuse confrontational dynamics in communication.
