Constantly parents who put their children through aversive ABA claim "there is no alternative" - the TINA justification. So I am posting this step by step guide for parents as an alternative. It is used to train parents so that they reshape behaviours they find problematic. However unlike ABA, it is child-centred, child safe, and child friendly. This is also a behaviourist technique.

Thanks for posting this.

For some reason the link is broken, but I think it's to the same thing you posted in the ABA thread on the advocacy forum:

Cigna parent training doc

The TINA justification is also being used by the bleach enema people-apparently it's an all purpose justification.
