There is so much more to behaviour than most people think. Children don’t try to upset us, there is usually something behind it. They are communicating their need through behaviour. If we look behind the behaviour we can see a child who is doing the best they can

"Some children will engage in repetative motions such as chewing, rocking, tapping, humming, rubbing, hair twirling, swaying, flapping etc This isn't them being gross, weird, annoying or inappropriate, this is them moving their bodies to regulate their nervous system and is called 'stimming'."

Disclaimer: I am not a professional or expert, I am interpreting behaviour based on my own lived experience and thus it won't be correct for all.

community, I invite you to add your own interpretations to these as well. For the sake of simple graphics I have given one possibility, however it would be great to show a range of what can be happening 'underneath' a behaviour.
