#Autism Parenting: I always try to foster my kids willingness to be helpful
There are times when my kids are feeling very helpful and times that they want nothing to do with helping. I always try to encourage them when they're in the mood to be helpful. I feel as though it's an opportunity to help them learn something new and it helps to build skills that will help them become more independent... ☺ I know that most of the time when I have little helpers, the job ends up taking more time but that time is well worth it, at least in my book.
