the person with autism i support has a compulsion to take/steal other people's coffee cups or soda pop cans. a psychologist has mentioned the creation of a "self-management tool" like a little journal or something he can take with him to check off different positive behaviors that will coach him to focus on other things other than cups with beverages.
has anyone heard of such a tool? any suggestions on how i could make this a fun craft type project? or any examples of what might work?
I know I have read about this being done, I thought it might have been on the internet so I did a search, but only came up with these 2 links. Maybe I read it in a book?
