[QUOTE="Shari, post: 159003, member: 1848"] Ok, here's an example of our in-home behaver therapist. *** (I can already feel the criticism coming in!) *** IHBT's particular goal that day was to get the big boys (easy child 1 and difficult child 1) to let things be and ignore difficult child's antics. difficult child was running around the living room without his pants on, rubbing his hiney on everyone's leg, like a pole dancer would. IHBT was involved in a conversation about sports with the big boys, doing a fine job of being oblivious to difficult child's but-wiping antics on everyone's pants. When difficult child left the room, IHBT said to the teen boys, "Doesn't that just make ya wanna get a can of ether and say 'night night'?" and "Well, if he can't hold any other job, he can be a male model - he can do the pole..." difficult child returned shortly after and continued his antics, and big boys and IHBT picked up the sports conversation again. *** One of the reasons I like this IHBT, besides that he does a good job with difficult child, is because he'll verbalize the frustration we all feel and tries to keep the humor in it all. I feel a little more human when I hear a trained psychiatric say "got some rope?" when I ask how to handle a particular situation, when that's exactly the lines I was thinking on. [/QUOTE]
