Adventures in autism vol#7....so when we took Gabriel to have blood drawn (based on aia vol#6 gummy vits) they had order my 6 year old with autism, who is still in diapers to pee in a cup! my first thought was dis belief ...they want him to do what!!! then they informed me i could take the cup home keep his diaper off and follow him till he peed and catch it mid stream! so i decided we were not leaving till he peed in the cup, i took him to the potty only to be told "no potty, all done potty" so i said "ok gabriel pee in the cup" he sat that there looked at me like i was stupid and then tried to pee! after several minutes i sat the cup on the ground and prepared to get up but he looked at me pointed at the cup and said pee. I disbelievingly picked up the cup and gave it to him and he peed in it and said "all done good job gabriel" ! So i have started potty training gabriel in a cup and today he stayed dry for 3 hours (while drinking). he peed in the cup 6 times in that hour! small victory in my fight against autism!
