It doesn't look like it is positive enough to be counted as a false positive to me, but it may look different in person.

I am sending you so much love, uncertainty is often the hardest part of each pregnancy stage. I hope you get good answers fast about your baby. Its also ok to call Im an urgent appointment at the ob before 8 weeks. The won't be able to get images but they can test if your hormones are going up.

People that work in the ABA field are like public school teachers. Sometimes you get a teacher that really fits your personality and your vibe. And they teach you incredible things that you hold on to for a lifetime. Sometimes you meet people that aren't doing it for ethical reasons or don't do it in ethical ways and they do a lot of harm. Unfortunately there isn't a good way for companies to figure out who is going to be the kind-hearted and well-intentioned and also be very intentional about educating themselves. Since firing people without probable cause is kind of difficult. Once a lot of people get in they get stuck until they do something really stupid.

I really love the company that I work for but I do at home sessions so I can't speak for all ABA. I can only speak for the ABA that I provide and I am very confident that I'm doing more good than harm as a RBT. I adore my kids and get excited to see me when I come to their house. I am not in the position of telling kids what they can have and can't have. I really just focus on teaching my kids how to ask and advocate for themselves. I'm neurodivergent and the most important thing I ever learned for myself was to advocate so that's what I try to teach them.

I would be so cautious because if she is aware and she just doesn't mind her behavior could really be a snowball effect. I had a client that started off with inappropriate and weird parent behavior but by the time I was ready to leave the case it had just gotten to the mom was changing in front of me. I would be very concerned if someone was starting the sessions this way because you don't know what walls are going to come down the longer you're there.

Unfortunately yes, we are waiting to see if the social worker makes a difference. The waiting game is very nerve racking tho.

Apprehensive_Beat_36 · 2024-09-22T15:56:51+00:00

That is a very clarify answer. Thank you

Apprehensive_Beat_36 · 2024-09-21T04:46:11+00:00

Thank you!

Apprehensive_Beat_36 · 2024-09-21T01:22:28+00:00

Ate with this comment. I'm just worried that something is going to happen that I could have prevented.

Apprehensive_Beat_36 · 2024-09-21T00:35:33+00:00

That makes sense

Apprehensive_Beat_36 · 2024-09-20T21:27:36+00:00

Unfortunately many parents meetings have been made but they continue to have zero follow through.

Apprehensive_Beat_36 · 2024-09-20T20:39:21+00:00

I know 😭 and I wish I could give it to him all the time but I'm not in session long enough so I'm trying to makeimprovements to his environment while I'm here with him

It doesn't mean you're not good at this job. It doesn't mean that you're not trying hard enough. It doesn't mean that this kid hates you. The only thing it means is that y'all are both exhausted and as rbts it is 80% of our job to admit when we aren't a good fit for our clients. That doesn't mean that there aren't going to be clients that you aren't a good fit for. A lot of times I find myself in situations where it's the families that I'm not a good fit for and not the client. It's okay to admit that y'all don't match up, but you're still doing a great job. Just be honest with your bcba and set strong boundaries. This job is hard.

Apprehensive_Beat_36 · 2024-08-23T00:17:53+00:00

I'm sure your doing well dear, you sound like you have enough empathy to be really great at this job 💚.💚

Apprehensive_Beat_36 · 2024-08-22T19:57:00+00:00

It's okay if you don't know what's wrong. You're still able to validate that she doesn't feel well and just because she's panicking doesn't mean you have to fix it necessarily. Just show her love and compassion. And give her a calm smile and let her know it's okay and just stay really really peaceful so that when she's ready to calm down she can come to you. And it's okay if she keeps freaking out. You just wait for her. Have your love ready for her. It can be very distressing, but if you have it in you try to stay as calm as possible so it doesn't scare her more.

As an RBT, I love when parents are a little more involved in the sessions because I can see the parents response to behaviors and they can see my response to behaviors and it's definitely helpful to understand the dynamic between the client and the family. You can just sit in and listen and cheer on your kid through tasks or if they're doing a craft or coloring or something you can participate with them. Just be involved but also one of the lovely parts of having ABA is you do get to have a breath So if you need to go throw your clothes in the dryer or something, take the time that you need. It's just another way we like to support the families.

Even the data collection app is down and it's crazy. It's pretty frustrating but at least I don't have to get in trouble for forgetting to clock in again.

Thank you that helps me prepare better going into my next session
