[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We were there - Ross Greene changed our lives. If consequences worked for these kids, it would be so much easier, but for some kids (including mine) they don’t. We are in a much much better place and avoided residential. It was scary to take such a different approach (we let it all go for awhile) but he is so so much better now. Also check out the Asberger expert guy. This is all so hard. [/quote]

I don't know what or who Ross Greene is. Can you give an explanation if you were in OP situation what you would have done? Gotten chick-fil-a to prevent retaliation? Ignore the behavior and just clean up the trash? [/quote]

Ross Greene's idea is that kids do well when they can. So if they can't meet an expectation, there's a reason, and we have to look past the behavior to figure out why.

So in the OP's situation, did she know that kid has a hard time when guests are coming over? One solution would be to get chick fila before it escalated. Another possibility would be not to have guests over or to send kid somewhere else or ... There are many options and we don't know what meets both of their concerns.

Once the trash is on the floor, the question is whether asking him to help clean will cause further difficulty.[/quote]
