In this colorful world, every child is a unique star, shining in their own rhythm and way. However, when our children are gently enveloped in the halo of autism, the desire for understanding and acceptance becomes particularly urgent. Faced with the behavioral challenges of autistic children, many parents, in anxiety and helplessness, may unconsciously choose scolding as a “correction” method. But please believe, this is by no means a good solution to the problem, but may leave indelible scars on the child’s tender heart.
Autism is not the child’s fault
Autism is a complex and mysterious neurodevelopmental disorder that manifests unique characteristics in children’s social interaction, communication skills, and interests. These characteristics are not intentional, nor can they be controlled by the children. Therefore, regarding autism as the child’s “fault” or “misbehavior,” and resorting to scolding, undoubtedly leads to significant misunderstanding and injustice towards the child.
Scolding will only exacerbate the complexity of the problem
Scolding not only fails to improve the symptoms of autistic children, but may exacerbate their anxiety, fear, and resistance emotions. In such an environment, children may become more closed off, making it harder for them to accept help and guidance from the outside world. Moreover, prolonged scolding can damage the parent-child relationship, causing the child to drift further away from the path of seeking love and understanding.
Guidance with love is the bridge to understanding
When dealing with autistic children, parents need patience, compassion, and wisdom. Firstly, acquiring in-depth knowledge about autism, understanding the child’s unique needs and challenges, is the first step in establishing effective communication. Secondly, through positive encouragement and guidance, help the child gradually build confidence, learn to express and manage their emotions. In this process, parental companionship and support are crucial.
Seek professional help and walk hand in hand
The road to recovery for autistic children is long and arduous, but not fought alone. Professional medical institutions, rehabilitation centers, and psychological counselors can provide valuable support and guidance to parents and children. They can tailor personalized rehabilitation plans based on the child’s specific situation, helping the child make progress in social, language, cognitive, and other aspects.
