The effect of the child ceasing such behaviors is not significant, and in some cases, there are signs of increased frequency and even deterioration of the situation. The reason is simple: these acts are intended to obtain sensory stimulation and it is very rewarding for the child when achieved. Therefore, using an ineffective strategy only allows for the indulgence of these inappropriate behaviors.<\/p>\n<p>Our Director, Toby Mountjoy had shared with parents, during the question and answer session, about teaching replacement techniques to intervene in the child\u2019s self-stimulating behaviour <b>(Proactive Procedure)<\/b>. In the long run, teaching alternative skills is an effective way to improve the problem.

If possible, parents should provide the least amount of physical action \/ assistance to stop the behavior, because we want the child to start learning to practise self-restraint. This way, in the future, interrupting the behavior can be relatively faster and easier. If the child uses an object to get sensory stimulation (e.g. spinning of a cup), simply just remove the object.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-83da5ff elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"83da5ff\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-36eb29b\" data-id=\"36eb29b\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f2d3ce2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f2d3ce2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><b>Step 2: <\/b>Use incentives to encourage your child to exercise restraint.
