    I just wanted to know why any of them make video with a child who's not responding to their commands as my child is not following my commands i cant find out how to educate my self for his behavior their are many videos but only with those autistic kids who can follow commands and are verbal its too annoying for me keep on searching.

      Your child is not a dog. You don't command him. This type of therapy has proven to only be harmful. They touch the child without the child's consent for one. as a kid and even as an adult this would've been, and is, one of my worst nightmares. they talk exponentially louder, with no care as to whether or not that child might be hypersensitive to sound. It is a cruel form of therapy. You should instead look more into something like CBT.

      I've told you how it's torture countless times already, stop pretending you don't know, you really have no sense of empathy towards clients. All we ever hear from you is friggin "Science! Science! Science! Science! Science!"
      You're so insensitive.
      Since you keep friggin copying and pasting the same message, I'll do so here.
      I know you do ACT.
      A - utism
      C - onversion
      T - herapy
      Grounded in the basis of Radical Behaviourism.
      So you think it's acceptable to physically harm children internally just because you can't see the damage?
      That's careless of you, you should educate yourself, ABA clearly does not take health seriously.
      ABA methodology is physically and mentally harmful according to 21st century science.
      We know that when a person consumes alcohol they are causing liver damage, but the individuals consuming alcohol seem so happy about it.
      Something making someone happy does not mean it's healthy. On things like lung cancer from smoking, the cancer doesn't result after the first smoke does it? It takes smoking repetitively to develop blood clots and lung cancer.
      It's the same with ABA, things may look good now just like it looks good when you see a 22 year old drinking alcohol feeling happy at a party, it takes quite a period of time for illnesses and cancers to develop doesn't it?
      Putting children in anxiety triggering the fight or flight response then telling parents they have to go through with it, doing so releases adrenaline from the adrenal gland. Adrenaline damages blood vessels, increases blood pressure, increases heart rate which all greatly contributes to the development of heart diseases, just like tobacco greatly contributes to lung cancer and alcohol to liver damage.
      As science has progressed ABA has remained in the early 20th century, it's being proven so many human behaviours are biological responses to what's happening on the inside, how a person is responding to their thoughts and not the environment.
      The longer ABA continues refusing to come up to date with the rest of science, they're just going to continue living as their own culture. As long as they remain regardless of everything happening beneath the surface they will remain unethical, harmful and out of date.
      Each time ABA overstimulates a person tension develops in the muscles. Sustaining tension in muscles causes chronic pain, then when they teach them to keep overstimulating themselves they take the risk of developing chronic pain disorders.
      Not good!
      The nervous system is directly connected to the brain through the spinal cord, scientists who are actually up to date claim there's approximately 1,000,000,000 neurons in the nervous system that they're describing it as a second brain and is the size of a cat or dog's brain. As ABA practices damage the immune system the children become more susceptible to sicknesses and diseases, especially associated with age.
      Again, not good!
      Due to variation in the hippocampus autistic people are more vulnerable to depression, the ignorance technique is both damaging to child development and causes depression and a reduction of self-worth. When people are in depression there is a reduction to metabolism resulting in food being turned into fat instead of energy which is why depressed people snack more (because the food did not turn into energy) and increases fat storage. The body will feed off of sugary cells before calories while increasing fat storage pushing children in the direction of developing type 2 diabetes later in life, especially when they use sugary foods as positive reinforcement.
      Not good once again!
      I and any other up to date scientists can provide countless damages that are happening beneath the children's skin, as long as ABA continues being regardless of the harm it's doing beneath the surface I will not support it. Doing all of this to children as young as 2 years old, how much of an impact do you think this has on human development?
      ABA has not done a single longitudinal study of its methods and is entirely ignorant of the results we see later in life. Universities have investigated the results and suspicions of today's ABA, they tested lots of autistic people, results showed that those who were subjected to ABA are still 86% more likely to meet the criteria of PTSD and nearly 50% of the people they tested are actually diagnosed with PTSD.
      Those tested who were not subjected to ABA were found PTSD symptom free.
      That doesn't look good to me!
      More funding should go towards neuroscience to understand autistic behaviours biologically, by doing so they may come to find biological solutions.
      I use biological solutions and have successfully helped autistic children accelerate in progression as unlike ABA, scientists outside of ABA are actually up to date with scientific discoveries, not once has ABA updated with the rest of science.
      Until ABA updates its scientific methods, its functions of behavior, and incorporates modern day psychology - including neurology, child development, educational psychology, and other vital research - it cannot be considered to be a safe, effective, or ethical field.
      There should be something like this on every consent form:
      ABA therapy focuses on the behavior of your child but does not take into account modern research in neurology, biophysical factors in behavior, neurodevelopmental conditions, trauma, or child development.
      The methodology behind applied behavior analysis was founded in the ’50s and ’60s and your analyst’s education may not have incorporated more modern discoveries in psychology or behaviorism. Use ABA as a therapy at your children's risk!
