These behavioural problems seriously hinder children\u2019s learning, and many parents reported that they do not know how to deal with these problems. In order to enhance the knowledge and ability of parents in home training, therapists of the APF Parents Resources Centre provided a training session earlier for parents of children undergoing our treatment programmes, teaching parents skills and tools for handling behavioural problems of their children, and encouraging them to use effective ways to improve the situation of their children continuously.<\/p><p>Most of the parents thought that scolding their children is a punishment. Mr. Isaac Wong, our Case Coordinator broke the myth. At the beginning of the training, he explained the theory of Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) and explained the definition of reinforcement and punishment, emphasising that we should observe children\u2019s behavioural changes after reinforcement and punishment. Sometimes, scolding children may also be a kind of \u201creinforcement\u201d which increases the frequency of the occurrence of a particular behaviour. He specially reminded parents to use rewards appropriately.<br><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e7f3871 gallery-spacing-custom

They learnt skills and tools to manage behaviours through the therapists\u2019 demonstration. Parents also practised using different behavioural systems and received on-site guidance from the therapists directly. Parents asked questions very actively, hoping to work out the most suitable behavioural system for their children.<\/span><\/p><p>A parent said, \u201cThe speaker\u2019s hands-on demonstration made it easier for us to understand. I also knew that which types of reward and punishment are suitable for my children.\u201d Some parents liked the practices. \u201cParents can practise different skills, and the therapists would give us suggestions.\u201d Isaac hoped that there will be more opportunities to share with parents about the skills of using reinforcement to improve children\u2019s behaviours in the future, so as to reduce the stress of caregivers in the long run and increase the children\u2019s learning effectiveness.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7f99f2e e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"7f99f2e\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a4dc40d elementor-post-navigation-borders-yes elementor-widget elementor-widget-post-navigation\" data-id=\"a4dc40d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"post-navigation.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<link rel=\"stylesheet\" href=\"https:\/\/uat.apf.org.hk\/wp-content\/plugins\/pro-elements\/assets\/css\/widget-theme-elements.min.css\">\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation__prev elementor-post-navigation__link\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/uat.apf.org.hk\/en\/news\/at-play-photography-gallery\" rel=\"prev\"><span class=\"post-navigation__arrow-wrapper post-navigation__arrow-prev\"><i class=\"fa fa-angle-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-screen-only\">Prev<\/span><\/span><span class=\"elementor-post-navigation__link__prev\"><span class=\"post-navigation__prev--label\">Previous<\/span><span class=\"post-navigation__prev--title\">At Play Photography Gallery<\/span><\/span><\/a>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation__separator-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation__separator\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post-navigation__next elementor-post-navigation__link\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/uat.apf.org.hk\/en\/news\/parents-training\" rel=\"next\"><span class=\"elementor-post-navigation__link__next\"><span class=\"post-navigation__next--label\">Next<\/span><span class=\"post-navigation__next--title\">Parents Training<\/span><\/span><span class=\"post-navigation__arrow-wrapper post-navigation__arrow-next\"><i class=\"fa fa-angle-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-screen-only\">Next<\/span><\/span><\/a>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder have varying degrees of behavioural problems, such as tantrums, out of the seat, and even self-harm. These behavioural problems seriously hinder children\u2019s learning, and many parents reported that they do not know how to deal with these problems. In order to enhance the knowledge and ability of parents in home training, therapists of the APF Parents Resources Centre provided a training session earlier for parents of children undergoing our treatment programmes, teaching parents skills and tools for handling behavioural problems of their children, and encouraging them to use effective ways to improve the situation of their children continuously.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":9811,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"elementor_header_footer","format":"standard","meta":{"_eb_attr":"","_joinchat":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[26,12],"tags":[13],"class_list":["post-9810","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-event","category-news","tag-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/uat.apf.org.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9810","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/uat.apf.org.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/uat.apf.org.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uat.apf.org.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uat.apf.org.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9810"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/uat.apf.org.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9810\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9823,"href":"https:\/\/uat.apf.org.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9810\/revisions\/9823"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uat.apf.org.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9811"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/uat.apf.org.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9810"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uat.apf.org.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9810"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uat.apf.org.hk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9810"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
