We start with a quick, practical rebuttal to insurers who argue toileting “isn’t an autism target,” and explain why communication, social routines, and rigidity make it absolutely relevant. Then we unpack classic intensive models (Azrin & Foxx) and LeBlanc’s updates, including when ethical “positive practice” is truly warranted. Next, we cover less-intensive, family-friendly schedules and reinforcement. Finally, we spotlight urine alarms like Wet Stop. LeBlanc, L. A., Carr, J. E., Crossett, S. E., Bennett, C.
