Many of our learners struggle with rigid behavior and showing flexibility, which is part of the diagnostic criteria for autism. This can impact the lives of our learners in a negative way, but fortunately, there are ways to help them overcome these struggles. Here, we discuss the best ways to incorporate teaching flexibility into our programs.
We start by defining rigidity and flexibility and how to determine when rigid behaviors are normal or problematic. We talk about how to obtain ascent and buy-in, how to work through healthy stress and discomfort, being mindful of anxiety when targeting rigidity, and more.
