Stimming

As a mother of special needs children, stimming is one of the most common things my kids do.

international QUOTE
Stimming is a repetitive behavior used solely to engage the senses. Examples include humming, clapping, hand flapping, manipulating objects (such as ripping paper), or running in circles. While these behaviors may seem inappropriate or unnecessary to others, those who suffer from autism are not simple looking for attention or trying to be disruptive-stimming is a way to reduce the stresses of the world.  Removing of stopping the stimming entirely can lead to a sensory overload.
