There are a lot of factors that go into deciding whether an ABA school or home ABA program is best for the child. While a school for autism may be better for those parents who are working full-time, we need to look at how safety, independence and happiness impacts the child. Is the child safe enough to go to an ABA school? Or does the child have severe problem behaviors and wandering issues that would make home ABA safer for them? This is one key factor in deciding on an autism school.
But even when you’ve decided to go with ABA therapy at school, how do you know if a center might be right for you and your child? School for children with autism can vary dramatically. I remember going into one school where there was a ton of positive energy going around, and another where the direct opposite was happening. So even if you’ve decided to settle on an autism classroom environment, you’ll need to visit, observe and make sure that the environment is a positive one.

Dr. Mary Barbera. I fell into the autism world as an autism mom in 1999 when her first-born son, Lucas, was diagnosed with autism. Since then, she became a Board-Certified Behavior Analyst and best-selling author of The Verbal Behavior Approach. Since 2015, she’s created 3 autism online courses based on applied behavior analysis for professionals and "gung-ho" parents. Whether you’re looking for autism parenting strategies, working with development delays in children, or in search of autism help for professionals, I can encourage you to subscribe to the channel and join me on my journey. I’ll be providing weekly autism resources that you don’t want to miss.

Thanks for this video, my son in 2nd grade he used to have 3 days at school and 2 days at center, now ABA had some staffing issues and they are saying we don’t want to do school and ABA and they told us to have him at full time ABA, We spoke with school and school saying they have one more ABA center option if we decide to continue at school. We are confuse with option to go with

@marybarbera 2 года назад

It is a hard decision for sure! make sure you are happy with the teaching in all settings because, while schedule is important, you want him in a setting where they are working on the right things for him.

@@marybarbera I had meeting with current ABA and I asked them that the main reason I see is because I asked for the update meeting, go over his current plan discussion meeting, So they got very nervous and they just came back one option only that only one option works for him, I am okay to send him to 5 days to ABA but when I asked if sending him to ABA will produce any results in next 6 months they said there is 0% guarantee on that

My 21 months old just got diagnosed with autism but the Dr recommend 10-15 hrs a week, that way too much in my opinion?

@marybarbera 4 года назад

For some kids this is appropriate, some kids need more and some it may be too much! It all depends on the assessment. You can learn how to help your child at home by starting here www.marybarbera.com/quiz

My son is two years and two months old just diagnosed has moderate autism little to no communication. We are being offered 2-3 hours in home Aba five days a week or 5-6 hours center based ABA. I am having the hardest time deciding which will be best for him he still does nap and I have a younger son who’s 8 months old. I want to do want is bed for him I don’t want him to be overwhelmed in the center I feel maybe starting at home and moving to the center based when he is closer to 3. What would your advice be should I do the one that gets him more hours we are also doing an hour of speech and OT

@samantham9056 4 года назад

Not Mary, but a parent that started my then 4 year old in ABA at home, transitioned to the center and now he has full time ABA in a kindergarten prep program at age 5. He has improved so much, and we are hopeful for much more in the next 6 months. ABA helps alot, but for us getting to see the practices of ABA in our home made us comfortable sending him to a center since he wasn't very verbal, Good luck!

Without knowing your child, I cannot offer specific advice. It depends on so many factors as I outlined in the video. I do have free online workshops that talk more about my online courses that do offer advocacy units. www.marybarbera.com/workshops

My grandson’s behavior in peds his learning . they refused to give an ABA test, absolutely refuse. It’s mind-boggling. He’s terrified of his teachers now he’s terrified of school because they take everything personally and he’s only a seven-year-old kid in the first grade. Who’s now I’m gonna have to repeat first grade..

In another school in another state, he went to mental health for pre-K . The new school said that his IEP was incomplete from the other school. I do not believe that.
