Should we reward for stuff they struggle with??? Consequence views and school advice

jrandall10

Hello everyone

What's people's views on rewarding? Should we reward our asd/spd 7 year old daughter for the things she struggles with e.g. playing, homework and eating new foods? We use a golden tickets thing n it does work but should she be getting a reward for stuff she should just be doing? 

Also we have found a consequence that changes her behaviour but I give just a warning first which usually works. Hubby thinks it should be an instant consequence, what's everyone else's views?

Also I see her struggling with school work but school say they're not worried, should I leave it or keep pushing??

Thanks in advance

  • Thank you for your reply. I have never thought of it like that but you are right. She struggles to play at home on her more than with others. When she plays with others she gets over stimulated and we just give her time to calm down. It's like some days she finds her free time a hard thing but if she sits doing nothing it leads to her getting into trouble. I am trying hard to understand her differences and not expect what we would of a nt 7 year old but some days its tiring to constantly keeping her occupied especially after I've been to work.

    Thank you again
