Stimming, you’ve heard the phrase from other parents who have a child on the spectrum but what does it mean? Stimming is a shortened version of the phrase self-stimulatory behavior. This type of behavior can range from arm flapping and repetitive behavior, all which are out of the ordinary for us, but are actually soothing actions for a child on the spectrum.
