Parenting a child with ODD doesn’t have to be hard. Fixing child behavior problems becomes easier when using the behavior skill of Correcting Behaviors. Correcting Behaviors allows you to correct any issues that arise in a way that helps prevent them from happening again, and that enables you to regain control of the situation. When you are able to describe what they did wrong. Deliver a doable consequence. Provide a reason that matters to them for the new behavior. Allow them to reduce that consequence, they are more likely to change the behavior. Kids with ODD will need to be corrected often, so this skill will help you remain calm during the many corrections.. http://www.smarterparenting.com/lesson/view/correcting-behaviors. Oppositional defiant disorder treatment strategies require consistency. ODD children will argue and fight with you and other authority figures. This is how they have been conditioned to figure out what your boundaries are and what they can get away with. When you aren’t consistent, they will use it against you. It will take patience and consistency on your part to see the change happen. Just keep at it and don’t give up. Eventually, the change will happen if you are consistent.. Here are some tips when using Correcting Behaviors with an ODD child: Be patient. Most likely, you will have to return and address issues over and over. This can be frustrating. Remember that this isn’t an overnight fix. Remember it’s ok to resolve the issue at a later date when you and your child are both calm.. Practice a lot. We recommend that any parent who is trying to implement a new behavior practice at least 3 times. Most ODD children are going to need more than that, but 3 is the minimum number of times they should practice. The more they practice, the more the new behavior will become ingrained.. Make a plan. Take time to consider how you will implement the skill of Correcting Behaviors and what poor behavior you will tackle first.. Know how to reduce the consequence for practice. Never wholly do away with a consequence, but decide on something fair for practicing. For example, if the consequence is 10 minutes less video game time, for practicing, they may only lose 5. This help a child know there is a benefit in changing their behavior.. Be consistent. As you begin, your child will test your boundaries and your ability to be consistent, so don’t give in.. How to correct children’s bad behavior is possible. Visit Smarter Parenting for other behavior skills that will help your ODD child.
Dr. Mary Barbera talks about some autism ABA strategies that can help parents and professionals understand how to stop a child with autism from hitting.. Sign up for a free workshop to start turning autism around: https://bit.ly/3bgXU82. Subscribe to get more insightful videos about #autism and related topics at: https://goo.gl/cGSdxX. Whether a child with autism keeps hitting you, others, or themselves, it’s a problem. In fact, dealing with aggression and autism are pretty common, and important issues. There are a number of causes for kids with autism to hit, but it’s important to always start with an assessment. Maybe demands are causing the behavior, or when the child is bored or in pain. Aggressive behavior and autism can correlate with things that are not happening too, and knowing when the behavior is not happening is equally as important. For example, if the child only hits when they are not on the iPad, that could be a cause as well. All of this is important information for creating a plan to stop or reduce the behavior. When working with autism violence, it’s also important to observe and analyze what else is happening when the child is hitting. Without any of this information, and questions answered, an autism aggression treatment plan can easily backfire.

Before I talk about ways to help with child behavior problems, I want to share a story with you Little Suzy recently started Kindergarten. Within the first several days of school, the teacher noticed that Suzy was quite defiant when asked to follow instructions in the classroom. There are many things you can do to teach your child impulse control skills. 6 One simple way to reduce impulsive behavior is by praising your child each time they think before they act or speak. Say, “Great job using your words when you felt angry today,” or “That was a good choice to walk away when you were mad.”.
When you react or respond to your child’s bad behavior, you are encouraging her. Stay positive. When you consider your child as a problem, you cannot find effective ways to deal with his behavior.
Focus on rectifying the behavior. Be consistent in your reaction or responses to your child’s behavior. More importantly, be consistent in the consequences to drive the point home.
Studies show that kids are more likely to improve when their parents adjust their own expectations, get support, and reduce their own stress levels. For more information, see my article about parenting kids with aggressive behavior problems, and these tips for relieving stress. 7. Create conditions that foster positive sibling relationships.
How to stop it: Make your child aware of her behavior. Tell her, for example, “When you roll your eyes like that, it seems as if you don’t like what I’m saying.” The idea isn’t to make your child. Sometimes, health problems such as poor sleep, trouble breathing, poor vision, difficulty hearing, or learning problems can cause behavioral or emotional symptoms, or make them worse. Your child’s healthcare provider may want to find out if your child has any health problems before referring your child for therapy. When you think your child’s behavior might be a problem, you have 3 choices: Decide that the behavior is not a problem because it’s appropriate to the child’s age and stage of development.
Attempt to stop the behavior, either by ignoring it or by punishing it. Introduce a new behavior that you.

Hi mary. My brother just turned 5 and he has extreme hyperness problems. He pulls our hair,pinches us and kicks us, hard. He hurts us on a daily basis and also has speech delay and chooses to ignore us when we try to tell him that what he does is wrong. He listens to my parents for just 10 sec before he returns and starts torturing us again. He hasnt been diagnozed with autism but he is said to be really hyper. Any advice on how to reduce (or stop) this behaviour?

These tips are very helpful! What do you think about playing soothing music or sounds while putting children to bed? I taught preschool and found that this could be very helpful in helping 20 3-4 year olds get some rest in the middle of the day.
My son will be 4 in November. He’s been in feeding therapy, speech therapy, and occupational therapy since he was 20 months old. He frequently gets jagged on the “easy foods list” you mentioned. If we provide him with the easy foods frequently, how do we prevent getting stuck on certain food items? For example, hot dogs are an item on his easy food list, but if we give them to him, even occasionally, he gets stuck on them and will eat nothing but them for anywhere as long as a week to months. His longest food jag has been on chocolate chip granola bars. He would eat nothing but them for every bit of food and he did this for roughly 3 months. We went through over 90 granola bars per week and a half. If we refused to give him granola bars, he would starve himself. The longest he’s gone without food is 63 hours.
Thanks for your help My child is 2years and 8 months he had speech delay and he still waiting for diagnosis He was eating most of our food before even if it was very difficult but 3 month ago he had fever and respiratory infection and after that he refuse all food he was eating before He just want milk and choclate even if he is hungry he dosen t open his mouth to eat.it is imposible to eat even little amount of vegetables or meat witch he was eating before
Have you found that this truly worked for children who were diagnosed with O.D.D.? Their brains are not “wired” the same as kids without this disorder so “praise” and “punishment” really doesn’t and cannot work for these children. A child without this would respond in a favorable way and the outcome would be as hoped for. I am curious to know how many children your strategies were tried on (and how many actually had success in following through).
What can I do? My son is three and now he speaks but he wants to tell everything before he sleeps, it may take hours. What is better to do stop him or not, if not he will talk for hours.We also read book before, he says about other things different.
My son has been hitting himself since he was 3 years old… He is now 26 and still doing it. I’ve begged through out his school life for him to have a behavioralist. Each time… His behavior isn’t bad. Each time it’s been noted regarding his hitting. Now, it’s really back fired on us. He hits himself in every mood… Good, bad, things he enjoys, things he don’t enjoy… Basically like stemming. My son is basically non verbal. He even started having seizures just 2 years ago. I’m just pissed that I feel he should have had help years ago when the behavior started. I’m pretty sure, 23 years later… That’s going to be hard to stop now.
Mam, my son is three, and his having lot of problem behaviour like hitting me or slapping me since the time the schools have closed and his therapy has stopped. What do I do?
Thank you helpful! My daughter is 7 she’s starting to hit at me, usually when she can’t have her way. It’s scary, but I let her know she can’t do that and I hug her and says “ Mommie loves you ok.

I have autism and I find a lot of comfort in a weighted blanket. You can get them in lots of sizes and weights. It’s very soothing! If there is trouble with physical contact, but they are having issues, the weighted blanket can be used similar to a hug; releasing endorphins, without the person to person contact.
Hi Dr. Barbera. I have a 16-year old non verbal severely autistic boy. He was tolerable 6 months ago. Suddenly last September he started hitting himself so hard on his forehead, hips & ankles. Hope to have private convo w/ you.
Tank you for your videos. I’m Norwegian, which means I’m extremely direct, but I’m trying to give constructive feedback:-p
1. You talk way to much!:-P There’s nothing remotely related to the issue of hitting before the 2 minute mark. Nothing.
2. Again, you talk to much!:-p actually, for me at least, the whole video was just a waste of time. I learnt nothing, and we got the diagnosis 2 days ago. The only thing that might be interesting was the 3 seconds it took to say “download my free 3 step guide”.
Obviously you’re very knowledgeable, and I thank you for sharing your knowledge by all means, but I hope you’ll talk less and get more to the point in your videos 😉
My son is 2 and my daughter is 5. My son hits my daughter. What can I tell my daughter to do when he comes after her? He’s not speaking or able to understand any consequences so I don’t bother with that. I usually redirect but I want my daughter to learn to stand her ground while remaining peaceful and non violent instead of running to me or crying and accepting the abuse. She usually cries and keeps getting hit and rarely comes to me. So what can I teach her?
Hi my grandson is almost 4. And he use to play with toys. But don’t anymore. All he does is open close doors. And if you have baby locks on them he. Will ho and slap anything that makes a noise. Like fridge, stove,dishwasher, wall heaters. The whole time he is inside. She takes him out in a stroller. Because he runs away. And she has a 2 year old. And a other on the way. The two year is fine. No autism. But he starts to act like his older brother. And hits things Is there away to stop the older one with autism. From hitting things non stop. He does it non stop the whole time he is awake. His mom goes over and says no. But he keeps doing it Need help to stop this before school thanks
I’m 16 and i still lay in bed with two 5 feet soft toys haha i got diagnosed with autism a months ago and now i know the reason why i do all these things
My niece is 5 years old, severly autistic, non verbal, and only hits when she doesn’t get her way. Surely we all shouldn’t just give into this bad behavior? We are all just at a loss.
Or when he having a tantrum he lied down and starts rolling his head and dosent see what he is doing I’m scared he will hurt himself on a car or toys which are on a floor
Hi Mary, thanks for uploading videos it really helps us to teach our child.
My son is 2 years 9 months old and having ASD, he show tantrums while walking on streets and always asks to carry him after 2 min walk. Could you please guide us on this.
Also he is having special interests in playing with plant leaves, onions and straw’s or similar objects.
I work as a substitute teacher. One time I was called in and asked if I could be an instructional assitant for the day and I would still get paid as a substitute teacher (which obviously pays more). I was assigned specially to one student who kicked me twice and threw a toy at me. I was surprised that none of the adults (who actually had known him for months) said anything. They didn’t say anything at all. They didn’t even say no. I was about to ask them, “Is it illegal for you guys to say no?” I never went back to that school because I highly doubt it’s illegal to say no.
What about adults with autism? I work with a guy who is 31 and autistic and when he doesn’t get what he wants, when he wants he throws a hissy fit. I feel like his parents spoiled him and never taught him violence is not a way of self meditation.
Now i m in belgium from 2016.And i have one more question or you can say complain that i was knew that my son have some problem from his age 1n half i consult with dr.but dr says its normal till he had an crises in front of nurse than they decide to take advice from nurologist or psychiatrist they advice me to give him risperdal and melatonine for slipping and calming but now its not helping just my family is suffering and as a mother i m loosing my all relation.thats all i hope u understand wat i want to say.
Doctor,my child can mostly tolerate hard and or crispy foods such as crackers,and chips..she only eats at times chicken for protein.her vitamins come from baby cereals and 1brand of baby food.most of the time she drinks milk..she would cry or be upset by just looking at foods..she wouldn’t even try to taste them.she was initially diagnosed with ASD.
My cousin hits everyone but what’s dangerous is he likes to hit people with things (controllers and toys). And he does it out of the blue and smiles about when he gets you. He also saw a clip from a show where a man hit his wife and he said “ I like him”. His mother does nothing about it and if he hits me they won’t tell him off,so when I do tell him they take his side. He’s only 6 but if they keep not addressing it I’m afraid when he becomes older he will be very violent.What should I tell him when he does hit me or others?
Have you ever realized why almost all Whites love and consume a gigantic amount of sugar(especially processed) on a daily basis? Sugar is like a drug and the Caucasoid race as a whole, love sweets because it gives them a similar effect of drug use. They are drug addicts as majority of them have always been, historically speaking, doing illegal drugs.

Is there away to stop the older one with autism. From hitting things non stop. He does it non stop the whole time he is awake. His mom goes over and says no. But he keeps doing it
Need help to stop this before school thanks
I’m 16 and i still lay in bed with two 5 feet soft toys haha i got diagnosed with autism a months ago and now i know the reason why i do all these things
My niece is 5 years old, severly autistic, non verbal, and only hits when she doesn’t get her way. Surely we all shouldn’t just give into this bad behavior? We are all just at a loss.
Or when he having a tantrum he lied down and starts rolling his head and dosent see what he is doing I’m scared he will hurt himself on a car or toys which are on a floor
Hi Mary, thanks for uploading videos it really helps us to teach our child.
My son is 2 years 9 months old and having ASD, he show tantrums while walking on streets and always asks to carry him after 2 min walk. Could you please guide us on this.
Also he is having special interests in playing with plant leaves, onions and straw’s or similar objects.
If possible create videos for these issues.
I work as a substitute teacher. One time I was called in and asked if I could be an instructional assitant for the day and I would still get paid as a substitute teacher (which obviously pays more). I was assigned specially to one student who kicked me twice and threw a toy at me. I was surprised that none of the adults (who actually had known him for months) said anything. They didn’t say anything at all. They didn’t even say no. I was about to ask them, “Is it illegal for you guys to say no?” I never went back to that school because I highly doubt it’s illegal to say no.
What about adults with autism? I work with a guy who is 31 and autistic and when he doesn’t get what he wants, when he wants he throws a hissy fit. I feel like his parents spoiled him and never taught him violence is not a way of self meditation.

Doctor,my child can mostly tolerate hard and or crispy foods such as crackers,and chips..she only eats at times chicken for protein.her vitamins come from baby cereals and 1brand of baby food.most of the time she drinks milk..she would cry or be upset by just looking at foods..she wouldn’t even try to taste them.she was initially diagnosed with ASD.
My cousin hits everyone but what’s dangerous is he likes to hit people with things (controllers and toys). And he does it out of the blue and smiles about when he gets you. He also saw a clip from a show where a man hit his wife and he said “ I like him”. His mother does nothing about it and if he hits me they won’t tell him off,so when I do tell him they take his side. He’s only 6 but if they keep not addressing it I’m afraid when he becomes older he will be very violent.What should I tell him when he does hit me or others?
Have you ever realized why almost all Whites love and consume a gigantic amount of sugar(especially processed) on a daily basis? Sugar is like a drug and the Caucasoid race as a whole, love sweets because it gives them a similar effect of drug use. They are drug addicts as majority of them have always been, historically speaking, doing illegal drugs.
