Summertime, summertime…..got to love it! Don’t forget that while you’re out with your special child, “Catch ‘em being good.” This is one of the principles of ABA which is easy to implement if we just remember to do so. This means praise, praise, praise your child for such things as spontaneously looking at you, “Hey, that was great looking!” Or, “I like the way you’re keeping your hands down!” Perhaps, “Wow! That was great waiting!!” So many times our kids receive attention (albeit negative) when they do things “wrong,” but lesser attention when they behave appropriately. This summer don’t forget to praise them for those times that you “catch ‘em being good!”

Our thoughts and prayers are with one special little boy whom we work with who is getting tubes placed in his ears today!  They are the type of tubes that stay in for a number of years and are commonly used in certain instances because of their longevity.  Mom, I’m about to give you a ring…..God bless.

As “Autism Awareness” month winds to an end those of us affected by autism can honestly say that every month is Autism Awareness Month. Lets don’t grow weary….keep on spreading awareness and striving for the excellent behavioral, social, language and academic progress our kids are capable of.
