Why wasn't mom involved in the sessions? Seems like a lot of unnecessary crying initially. Parent training is vital so therapy strategies can be utilized at home as well. Was a pre assessment done? I don't see any pairing with the therapists or the table. I see demands with no reinforcers. Table time is really hard for young ones. Therapy can be done on the floor with a toy the child actually wants to play with. If it's a less desirable toy you are trying to use, I would cleanse the area of other distractions and then have a strong reinforcer to give after your trials to help motivate this kiddo.
The whole point of ABA is to traumatize autistic behavior out of children and ignore the reason for why they act the way they do. There's no room for wondering about the feelings or needs of the children.
many many thanks to his family for letting us understand this process of learning :) It gives me hope.
