• Unpacking Pain, Protests, and Providing Service

  

  What’s A Therapist To Do When The World Is Amuck and YOU Still Need To Provide A Service? Years ago, I had an experience when my bad day turned into a bad week.  I was in such a state of emotional pain and angst.  I could not see anything beyond my well warranted emotions.  While…

• Disseminating the Science to Eradicate Social Injustices

  

  Why the Science of ABA Doesn’t Reach and What We Should Do About It Sounds serious doesn’t it? Sounds like we are really about to make an impact. Sounds smart?!?  There are so many good initiatives in our field that don’t have legs. I liken it to Preaching to The choir. The problem is that…

• What’s Laundry Got To Do With It

  Expecting More in ABA and Why This Should Matter to Parents It is frustrating  when vocational programs for learners with autism that focus a majority of their goals and time on  laundry and cooking.  I’m just guessing, but there are a more than a handful of people in this world who do not know how…

And peace is priceless.  Recently on a list serve to which I belong the question…

• Using Patterning to Teach Social Skills

  I read an article today posted on the web about teaching social skills.  The authors of these articles are correct: We cannot leave the teaching of social communication to the teacher.
