My 4 yr old autistic son constantly pushes his 10 month old sister. how can i get him to stop this?

Autism: If he is truly autistic, he will need lots of "occupational therapy" to teach him normal social skills. He should not be left alone with his baby sister but punishing him verbally will probably not help. You should seek skilled therapists in autistic children for guidance on behavioral training.
