“Bossy” behavior often comes from dysregulation, not bad behavior 🧠

Many children on the autism spectrum try to control play because it helps them feel safe and in control inside. And when things don’t go their way, they may cry, repeat, or follow others because they don’t yet know how to handle that feeling.

Instead of only correcting, we gently teach turn taking, handling “no,” flexible play, and communication skills ❤️
This is where real progress begins
