Case: Refusing help
I work in a virtual school in a special education classroom for students with moderate to severe intellectual disabilities. I deal with my parents on a daily basis. I have a student with Autism who has aggressive behaviors. The mom is getting hit, bit, and hair pulled on a daily basis. The school has offered ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) Therapy to help reduce the students behavior; however, the parent has refused. What else can you do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
As a parent they have the right to refuse help. She will accept help when she is ready for it. By accepting help she is saying there is a problem and she is not ready for that. Continue to offer when it comes up but other than that you just wait it out. |

Comments: While I agree that it is ultimately the mother's decision, I believe that other steps and approaches can be taken to persuade the parent into APA Therapy rather than just waiting it out. If the student's grades are suffering as a result of behavior, then therapy should be implemented as soon as possible. |
