It is based on positive reinforcement, meaning when a child does a desired good behavior, they are rewarded. When they are rewarded for performing good behavior, the child is more likely to continue to repeat it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is often one-on-one therapy that can be done in any setting, including the home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Related Post: <a href=\"https:\/\/myworldaba.com\/2022\/05\/18\/aba-therapy-faqs\/\">ABA Therapy FAQs<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Can Parents Help?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It is important for parents to understand ABA therapy and be involved in what their child is working on, so they can continue the positive reinforcement at home. Having the techniques extend beyond a therapy session into everyday life is more likely to make them successful in changing a child\u2019s behavior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">My World ABA Offers Parent Training<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At My World ABA, we know it is important for parents to get involved in their child\u2019s therapy, and we want to help provide all the resources necessary for parents to be successful at home.
