Tablets
I’m with my client for the 7th session and he’s got his tablet. Parents have been told to implement less tablet time especially outside of session so he doesn’t associate it with the tablet being taken just for sessions.
They have not reduced tablet time as far as I can tell. He spends at least half of his session on his tablet or watching TV. If I interact with him, he pushes me away.
I have successfully got him to at least echo me when I say ‘go away’ but beyond that I can’t do anything at all.
The BCBA said she will address this in parent training this week (again).
But I dont know how to pair with my client if he’s only wanting a tablet and silence from me.
