Autism and Toilet Training written by Danica Mamlet http://maxweber.hunte r.cuny.edu/pub/eres/EDSPC715_MCINTY RE/Autism&Toileting.html Remembe r even though your child is not verbal he understands everything you say to him. He's like a computer and stores all the information he sees and hears. he just can't send it back out to you. Also, teach him sign language and then your communication with him will greatly improve as will his ability to talk to you. Good luck. ↑
