Top Ten Strategies for Promoting Positive Behavior in Children
It is much more efficient to prevent behavior difficulties than it is to try and decrease them once they are already in a child's repertoire. This presentation outlines a number of simple strategies that can be used to structure the home and school environment to prevent behavior problems in children with CHARGE syndrome. Discussion includes the importance of consistency, positive feedback, high but realistic behavioral expectations, communication at the child's functional level in the correct mode, teaching independence and self-management and how to get professional help if you need it. |
