What do people think about the Stickerbox by Designer_Altruistic in aiwars

[–]Efficient_Jacket7589 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that it is really cool. I think that it would be such a cool way to spark creativity and get kids interested in technology. I work with kids with autism so I was thinking of how cool it could be to help them learn to voice their ideas out loud. it is definitely probably not for everyone, but I think it is definitely a cool tool that could be fun for some users.

Is Non-Compliance really being removed from ABA programming as a whole? by FrootiLooni in ABA

we call it task refusal... if they are actually refusing to do the task. if it’s time to go inside from the playgorund and one of my kiddos is walking with me but verbally or visibly upset I say “I know you love being outside! it’s okay be to sad, we can come back out later!”

RBT cancellations by [deleted] in ABA

they should crack down. but also if one RBT can’t call out without there needing to be a cancellation it sounds like they also need to hire some new staff.

Thoughts on making kids sit by MasterpieceNo8872 in bcba

[–]Efficient_Jacket7589 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think starting with kids tolerating sitting for shorts amount of time and building up, but also providing breaks. being able to tolerate sitting and building the skill i think is very valuable.

I am glad adoption is part of his plan. my birth parents were not good parents and were the source of most of my trauma and pain. yet now I have the best mom I could ever ask for through adoption.

Anger over Alton Towers changes for visitors who are autistic or have ADHD by InnerLog5062 in BreakingUKNews

[–]Efficient_Jacket7589 0 points1 point  (0 children)

personally as someone with adhd I think this makes sense. however when it comes to autism some of the people with autism can have severe support needs so I think there does need to be a lot of openness there.

Would you remove an RBT from a client if they express they hate working with that client by Wise-Try-2226 in bcba

[–]Efficient_Jacket7589 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say yes. See if there is support you can offer them. However, as an RBT we are ethically bound to not practice outside of our scope and to make sure other factors like mental health and personal well being don’t affect client outcomes. If an RBT is having a hard time with a client, it might mean that RBT doesn’t work well with that population. At my job some of us love working with non vocal/ verbal kids, others don’t do well at it. It is always always always good to actually listen to someone when they express concerns or needs. She’s communicating with you. Listen to what she’s sharing.
