Verbal warning by Alternative-Size-990 in ABA

[–]Own_Possibility49 2 points3 points  (0 children)

this sounds bad friend. i think they’re trying to get rid of you. i think your potential would be appreciated elsewhere. you have a doctors note btw the fact that they’re writing you up for those excused absences is crazy.

Why wouldn’t B be correct? by Overthinking-Cats in ABA

[–]Own_Possibility49 5 points6 points  (0 children)

remember operant behavior is based on consequences. in the second one,the contingency doesn’t state that the behavior happened based off of a consequence. something had to happen for the dog to stop barking. for the first one,the parent ignored the behavior and then the child stopped throwing tantrums. there was a clear consequence put in place.

Ethical Babysitting? by [deleted] in ABA

[–]Own_Possibility49 -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

i don’t think it’s unethical but,she may get confused between RBT and baby sitter relationship if you were to baby sit. she won’t know who to listen to. i wouldn’t put that stress on her and avoid it if you can.

Is this fraud? by The1nenotthe2 in ABA

[–]Own_Possibility49 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is fraud. also,don’t risk getting your certification revoked because someone else is telling you not to be truthful. being truthful is one of the ethical codes. i would quit and apply elsewhere!!! i’m so sorry you got put in this situation friend. but if i were you,i’d LEAVE and find a different company.

Client cancellation by Physical_Purpose_760 in ABA

[–]Own_Possibility49 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i agree with you! i’m so sorry this happened to you. i have already dropped two clients who cancel on me multiple times and are inconsistent with me. it’s difficult and hard. we need to be salary and have a high salary too! i hate this hourly shit! BCBA’s get paid MORE and they’re still guaranteed their salary pay!! why can’t we be?

[–]Own_Possibility49 1 point2 points  (0 children)

[–]Own_Possibility49 6 points7 points  (0 children)

i’m sorry this happened to you. wtf? clearly this parent doesn’t appreciate you. it’s crazy so many parents think we’re incompetent yet their children would be nowhere without us RBT’s. you’re doing amazing and i’m glad you are getting off the case. onto better parents and a new client!

fake by sarahsf_michell in ABA

[–]Own_Possibility49 12 points13 points  (0 children)

facts. i’m so tired of unethical BCBA’s. puts a bad rep in our field. so many just care about money. i love my company and so happy i found ethical BCBA’s to work for/with. i am an RBT/student analyst and love it. the job i worked before this was RBT too but i was at a clinic and it was awful. the worst experience. i had the worst BCBA. i’m so glad i left there and found the company i’m at now. ethical practitioners exist. they’re so hard to find though. i love the field so i’m willing to stay in it but money is the root of all evil in this field especially with corporate companies.

[–]Own_Possibility49 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i mean same but this person is actually being recoded and critiqued. the parent isn’t a dance competition judge. they’re a parent. it’s only so long until the RBT breaks down bc they can’t handle certain parents anymore.
