Key Takeaways:

We are currently working on the key takeaways for this article. They will be available soon.

The presentation above addresses the concerns around undressing in public. Behaviour Management in Autism becomes crucial in such scenarios.

Consider the following scenario:

Kapil is 13 years old. He has sudden outbursts and removes his clothes, completely unaware of who is around him. Then, he sits in the nude and walks around the house without clothes. This behaviour has also happened in other social settings as well. How should a parent handle this situation?

Browse through the slideshow above to understand the root cause of your child’s behaviour and ways for behaviour management in Autism shared by Snigdha Indukuri.

If your child also has trouble with handling his/her behaviours and indulges in headbanging, please refer to this presentation by Parul Gupta. The presentation mentions the possible root causes of headbanging behaviour.
