Are Rewards Your Friend Or Foe?

In this episode Victoria discusses why rewards are important for young people with Autism, whilst also recognising how easy it is for them not to work especially with young people with Pathological Demand Avoidance.  She talks about common pitfalls people make, when establishing reward schemes and about more general reasons they fail. Don't panic though, she also tells you exactly what you need to do to make sure you get it right. If you've tried rewards before and they haven't worked, this is the episode for you. And if you're trying to establish a scheme that works for child with autism and Pathological Demand Avoidance for the first time, it's definitely a must listen to episode.  Links:  www.autismconsultancyinternational.com If you need more support check out: https://autismconsultancyinternational.com/uniqueandsuccessful-the-membership/ https://autismconsultancyinternational.com/reboot-your-summer/ Content Disclaimer The information contained above is provided for information purposes only.
