(We skipped that, so I want to ask, to make sure you're not doing whatwe did wrong.)<br /><br />The key to getting verbal answers is to get non-verbal answers, first. We learned that the hard way - please learn from our mistakes!<br /><br />Hold up a cookie, offer an inviting facial expression, eyebrows up, big smile, to ask, non-verbally, "ya want it?" Let him answer non-verbally. <br /><br />The more our daughter began to engage in interaction, non-verbally, the more verbal dialogue INCREASED on it's own (without targeting it at all) and the scripting decreased on its own.Pennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03646382031666180357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8995326396841325838.post-6465534643500258292010-09-29T12:05:01.739-04:002010-09-29T12:05:01.739-04:00Oh, I so feel you.

Lots of scripting lines from TV, books, etc. <br /><br />A lot of cat in the hat: "no no no make that cat go away!" and "your mother will be home."<br />Really makes me crazy. Ok, crazier!Dani Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14784014166868984046noreply@blogger.com
