[quote=Anonymous]I am in month four( ish) of using Kazdin. The other posters are correct that you need to focus on one behavior at a time. I had a rough start because I chose the wrong positive opposite for my first month. My kid was too rough with his younger brother, and touched him too much. I rewarded “ giving him space”. He did start playing farther away, but that didn’t help with rough touches when they were closer together.

It’s not in the book, but the most helpful thing I did was buy a huge roll of chart paper, and write Kazdin’s advice on my wall. I marked up the book as I read it. Then I went back and copied the best, most pithy quotes onto posters. I organized them by topic, and hung them where I would need them. I had the most important paragraph across from the at the breakfast table. It’s very robust program, and I found that I had to assimilate a lot of new ways of thinking. Rereading a summary of the book every day helped. If you have an older child at home, just write everything in cursive, so she can’t read it. In month three, the only chart I have left up is the sticker chart that keeps track of his big reward. [/quote]
