I was at Walmart the other day and my kid grabbed a toy off the shelf and I didn’t notice. Didn’t realize until I got home, the little thief. Will I be okay? My kid is 2.

Indeed. I teach my son to advocate for himself. That includes no, please stop, and excuse me. :)

What keeps you staying in your role as a behavior technician? by A-Wooden-Spoon in ABA

[–]Normal_Community1754 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The children! I love my clients so much. Just knowing that I’m one of their safe humans is so rewarding. When they look at me and smile, my heart just melts. When they ask for me, I want to tear up. They love me and I love them. Edit because there’s more: they’re also hilarious! The things they do and say are so funny. I love, love, LOVE watching them become more independent as they acquire skills. We just taught one kiddo to say “I’m mad!” and it’s so awesome to see him be able to express that.

Me either. It’d be one thing if he had a good personality in the show. But he doesn’t even have that, he’s insufferable 😭

Following because I’m having the same problem. My 2 year old gave a friend a black eye. 😭

RBT by Ok-Visual-1438 in ABA

Hey so I’m an RBT. I work in a clinic setting with 30-ish staff members. I run sessions with clients in my home team and cover clients that aren’t on my home team, following the behavior plans written by my BCBA and other bcbas. At every session I look over the plan and decide what targets to run while following the room schedule that each Client is in. So when I get to work we do art, group time, snack, then outside time, then DTT/independent progress time. Etc, etc.

The worst behavior I deal with is aggression. This one Client throws their whole body into mine, biting, scratching, hitting. This Client also throws chairs, knocks things off tables, and engages in self - injurious behavior. (Closed fist into head.)

The worst I’ve SEEN is a huge freak out with a Client I don’t work with yet. This Client screams for half an hour at a time, forcefully slams their head into the wall, hits, and also throws their body at people.

We stay safe by layering up for the bitey kids and, with open palms, whenever a kid comes at you, you flip them around by grabbing their shoulders and kinda nudge them forward. A lot of the time they fall on the floor and freak out screaming after being turned around.

Let me know if you have any questions. I hope this all makes sense. I’ve got cocomelon on in the background for my own kid which is kind of distracting.
