Obedience training is for circus animals!
Come with a glass of milk within reach! Obedience training, even in the case of circus animals is increasingly frowned upon. Subtle or passive aggressive versions of obedience training continue to be thrust on all children, especially neurodivergent ones. Listen to this episode to understand the depth of damage this approach can have on a child's psyche, after which, the choice to continue to engage with it on behalf of your child, is yours to make. Also, Maggie touches on an alternative idea, one that is better suited to the needs of your neurodivergent child.
