As a speech and language therapist I’ve often come across this problem one system I found that works for some children is to use a character of interest to the child and put that alongside the visual story, if the child has the reading ability you can also add speech boxes here are a couple of examples here we used Buzz Lightyear and he talks the child through each stage of the toileting process

My name is Adi, and I am the proud parent of Saar, a lively 17-year-old who happens to have autism. I have created a blog, 101Autism.com, with the aim to share our family's journey and offer guidance to those who may be going through similar experiences. Saar, much like any other teenager, has a passion for football, cycling, and music. He is also a budding pianist and enjoys painting. However, his world is somewhat distinct. Loud sounds can be overwhelming, sudden changes can be unsettling, and understanding emotions can be challenging. Nevertheless, Saar is constantly learning and growing, and his unwavering resilience is truly remarkable.

    I’ve recently wrote about evaluating your child’s life and academic skills. This video is foundational about teaching Austic children about toilet training. When I watched this video, it reminded me that we have to educate these children with principle upon principle – one step at a time. If you have an Austic child, please leave your thoughts or ways you’ve taught your child this life skills.
