A few weeks ago I attended a workshop presented by a behavior therapist. As it turned out, I went to a conference on the same topic over a year ago. I will describe what I have taken away from these methods in my own words - but please take a look at the links I have provided below. After I learned about this, life with children made a lot more sense to me. Not that this is earth shattering material, but it helped me to better understand the hows, whats and whys of behavior in children, and occasionally husbands. I am in no way an expert in this - just a parent who wants to share a behavior strategy that has worked in our home. I hope to inspire others to explore it further. Any errors in information comes from me and cannot be blamed on the presenters. Also, you may have seen ABA - Applied Behavior Analysis - connected most often with Autism - please do not let this deter you if your child is not autistic. I use these methods with all my children, none of which are labeled au
LOL! Much better than bringing home the real deal, for sure! My youngest has a love/hate relationship with spiders. He's fascinated by them, talks about them, draws them, etc. but if a real one comes within 20 feet of him he screams like a little girl :D
ReplyDeleteLove Logan's tarantula -- he's really cute. That's not a compliment I often bestow on spiders. ;)

Too funny! That's the perfect way to let a child play with a "spider"!
