Yes, I can hear you!

Mom! Mom! Mom! I want___! Repeat 20 times at a scream and welcome to my day. Oftentimes a form of stimming you can see in autistic children is a need to repeat phrases over and over and over. Other times it can present itself as a need for children to get you to repeat them. The advice I have given many parents is to answer once, then ignore it. However, now that I am in their shoes its a whole different ballgame! I have been going to bed more and more often with a pounding headache after hearing my child scream all day long! She has a hard time moderating her actions and words so while I know she is screaming, it just doesnt come across that way to her. Do you ever deal with this? What is your response to it?
