[QUOTE="Sheila, post: 99620, member: 23"] Just some thoughts.... Some behavior plans can put so much pressure on a child that it causes other problems -- like anxiety. Every 1/2 hour seems a lot to me. And then 5 free minutes for every good 1/2 hour. Is transitioning back and forth a problem? It just seems that difficult child would have to exert all his attention and energy toward being good. Even adults can't do this day in and day out. Can you imagine how you'd feel if your boss was grading you every half-hour? I think reward systems can be very helpful, but we found it was best to only work on two or three behaviors at a time. When one behavior was mastered, drop it and add another. Hang on, the 30th is almost here. [/QUOTE]
