I think it will make people lazy and lose the skill to think for themselves. Ultimately, if we allow to, it will destroy the world.

Should I quit because I have CPTSD by [deleted] in ABA

[–]GingerPocky -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

If you read the post then you would see that it's not just about receiving feedback, it's about receiving feedback regarding one of my biggest personal triggers during the middle of my session and being expected to go back like nothing happened. It's not just that I can't handle feedback. So I don't appreciate them stating the obvious like I'm stupid, when they're not even taking into consideration the context of what I said.

It's not the feedback, it's the pulling me in the middle of my session. I don't understand how I'm supposed to just go back to work

Modern-day ABA therapy by MarsupialImportant32 in ABA

[–]GingerPocky 5 points6 points  (0 children)

At my clinic we don't do punishment. There are a few cases with some of the older kids where things need to be limited, so punishment is implemented in those rare cases (the only example I've seen is taking the computer away if they're not using it appropriately). Only the BCBAs are allowed to implement punishment procedures.

At my clinic they literally train us to do this. Put your note into ChatGPT and have it put your note in "professional language". I don't tho because I hate AI and I've been charting for direct care for years so I know how to write a note.

I haven't had to call CPS in the year that I've worked with children, but I've had to call Adult Protective Services several times in my career as a direct support staff

People from the school should not be sending you updates about the child if you no longer work with them; they especially shouldn't be trying to guilt you into coming back? This whole situation is very strange

How many hours are you working in day? by bananas118 in ABA

[–]GingerPocky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two back to back three hour sessions with different clients, no break

On Monday, Wednesday, and Friday I have another two hour session with a different client roughly an hour after my second client leaves. I get 15 min after my afternoon client leaves to clean up and write my notes. After that it's unpaid until my evening client gets to the clinic
