Peers working with children who have autism need to be aware of how behaviors are a form of communication. Tantrums and meltdowns are not just stubborn behaviors. Sometimes they are the only way a child with autism can express themselves. Adults should help peers to be aware of this within the framework of positive behavior supports. An additional want is to plan for repeat problems. Peers need usable strategies and techniques to teach social skills to children with Autism. Specifically adults should help peers should look at enjoyable socialization methods so children may experience success and the desire to build skills. Social deficits affect life at home, school, and eventually in the workplace. Children want very helpful approaches which can be used across a mix of settings and routines. The approaches should be realistic and effective answers to assist 'typical' people peers. The approaches should also help peers to become more considerate, tolerant, and engaging of those with social difficulties. Part of behavior management approaches is the process of making a bond on as many levels as possible. Then within the context of the relationship children with and without Autism can work on collaboratively solving problems with behaviors. It also includes doing whatever possible to stay away from power struggles. Another part of behavior management for children with Autism is to encourage social skills. This should be done with official lessons on social skills. A social skills training program should also teach approaches for the child to be able to generalize the skill from one place to another. At the same time a child wants social skills training, a typical peer might want sensitivity training to better be able to work with a child with Autism. Peers can use a mixture of ways to follow both the social skills and the sensitivity, such as lunch buddies, peer buddies, and class buddies. Other techniques to be explored with a child with Autism are conversation skills, cooperative play skills, emotion management, understanding others' feelings, and dealing with teasing.
