[QUOTE="helpmehelphim, post: 16303, member: 2650"] My son is 11 and through our use of Plan B, he has begun to understand that he has a responsibility to be part of his solutions. He can communicate to me that he has choices of staying in a current problem (these problems led to meltdowns in the past) or collaborating towards a solution. When I use the word "responsibility" that is the context I am using. One of the changes I have noticed in him is his ability to communicate that no matter how uncomfortable it may be, nothing changes within him until he takes part in that change. I can give him access to tools to help with- SI and anxiety, I can help him with- social skills or get him the help needed but he has to join in and I believe that collaboration has helped him learn how to do that. I don't expect him to do it like an adult, I expect him to participate in working towards the big picture. And there's accountability to that because if he's not accountable, there is no big picture.
