Hello,

 

My daughter is an absolute doll. But she doesnt speak, yet knows basic sign language. My concerns are she hits herself hard in the head when she doesnt get her way. Of course i tell her 'I dont hit you so, I dont want you to hit you' while trying to also stop her from constantly raiding our food cabinets. The teachers used food as a reward system and basically trained her to be a dog. By the time i figured that out the damage was done. How do i stop her from hitting herself? Any suggestions?

The sandbox is for testing; there should be no responses to this. But if there were it would be "seek out the advice of a medical professional"
