[quote=Anonymous]Hi, Op

I'm so sorry!  First, I think it is ok to disregard some things your therapist says.    If it doesn't seem to make sense to me than I give myself permission to ignore their advice or try something different ( or combine the two) This goes with peditricians as well ( sorry about spelling) For example,  one time the peditrician suggested that I stop giving them a cookie for lunch.  They were not fat and it was one Milano cookie.  I didn't think I needed to take away their treat so I nodded my head and totally ignored that advice.

Second example, my child had anxiety and OCD.  The therapist told me that I should stop sharing stories of my life to my daughter because it wasn't helpful (she thought).  So, when she said she was nervous about something I wasn't allowed to say " I remember when I was your age and I felt nervous"  Or the therapist told me to buy a work book about anxiety but don't give it to her?  That didn't make sense either so I changed therapists.

My point being is if you want to change the point system and take away points for rude or bad behavior you are the parent and should do it.  Tell your son the new rules and then tell the therapists.  They do not know all the answers and you know your son the best.

Good luck![/quote]
