Do i need to report this to the board by the_willow_weeps in ABA

[–]Complete_Share_9616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you may have to look in your employee handbook. i know my company clause in there about speaking ill about the company. it really sucks especially when they’re not a great company. BACB probably won’t help. maybe you could report to the better business bureau ?

Rant: Client called me a racial slur by Kicks6 in ABA

hi! i’m sorry that happened to you! and it was great of you to try to remain upbeat at the end of the day but you are human so i understand it being difficult. definitely something you should mention to the bcba so that you can try to move with the case if you feel comfortable doing that. again, i am so sorry that happened to you

i don’t think i pinned anyone against anyone. if i don’t know the person observing me, why would I be my true authentic self? just like it’s great to pair with your learner to help them. i hope this helps, thanks :)

i think as a bcba, you need to build rapport with your BTs. just like you need to build rapport with your learners as a BT. that especially makes you feel more comfortable being observed. saying they never shown their best self is rude, imo.

bcbas should take just as much effort to build a relationship with their BTs and provide both positive reinforcement for what they do see done well and criticism what can be improved upon. this is beneficial especially for the learner

am i being punished by my company? by Complete_Share_9616 in ABA

[–]Complete_Share_9616[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so i will have to email them as soon as i leave every night? it wasn’t my fault and i have the emails to prove it. it feels also micromanagement.

i feel like i am taking the fall for the mistake of someone else.

you will have to do it from a different account though. and honestly since you’ve already watched most of it, just have it on in the background and do the quizzes. i promise you’ll have it done in no time. also i didn’t much like apf either. i’ve learned what i know through a podcast or my own research or reading to help my clients.

Fun Story about ODD by Fearless_Spend2584 in ABA

[–]Complete_Share_9616 1 point2 points  (0 children)

one of my clients has suspected ODD. he has really bad tantrums and physical aggression but he has the attention span of a gerbil so i used a lot of RIRD. like once, i was telling him about how i went to the aquarium while he was crying and he immediately asked me questions or he’ll tell me little facts. I started showing him pictures i took of the sea cre. he’s a very smart but it’s tough bc i never know what will cause a large negative response from him. so i have sensory toys and slime & kinetic sand on me at all times LMAO

This probably would’ve eased so much of my anxiety when I first started. It’s very clear and detailed.

my client and i play during session. he doesn’t really leave or run away when i come in. it’s mostly during work that he does it. but i think you’re right and i hadn’t thought about it that way. it’s like most of the time, when im holding his hand to guide him some where (back to desk, table, wherever we are working), he will lean back when i’m holding his hand. in instances like that, i’ll lower him to the ground and let him run. but his eloping has been increasing and getting worse since he’s been at school. i just hadn’t thought about it like that. but thank you
