58. Tackling Challenging Behavior with Positive Interventions

In this episode, I am going to focus specifically on how Positive
behavior support (PBS) can be effective for our kids. Whether it
is utilizing a Positive Behavior Intervention Support (PBIS) or a
Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP) or whatever type of plan your
child’s education program or school team puts together.  The
point is that it can absolutely improve your child’s behavior
across settings when both the family and the school team are
working collaboratively together as a team.


When these supports are implemented and over time, they can have
lasting benefits both at school and at home.  These plans
when developed can include many different components. Here is
what we do know, we know that proactive strategies reduce the
likelihood of problem behavior and instead they prompt positive
behaviors.


The goal of any positive behavior support plan is that it rewards
our kids by teaching them how to self-manage their own behavior
over time.
