  16. CDIThe Basic Rule Follow the Child’s Lead

  17. CDI: The DON’T Rules • No commands • No questions • No criticism

  18. CDI: The DON’T Rules Direct : Sit here Indirect : Could you sit here? • Commands attempt to lead • Risk negative interaction No Commands

  19. CDI: The DON’T Rules Questions ask for an answer • Often hidden commands • Take lead from the child • Can suggest disapproval • Can suggest not listening No Questions

  20. CDI: The DON’T Rules No Criticism • Examples • You’re a bad girl • That doesn’t go that way • No Stop Quit Don’t • Points out mistakes rather than correcting them • “That’s wrong” is a criticism • “It goes like this” allows correction without criticism • Lowers self-esteem • Creates unpleasant interaction

  21. What’s left?

  22. CDI: The DO RulesThe PRIDE Skills • Praise • Reflect • Imitate • Describe • Enthusiasm!

  23. CDI: The DO Rules Praise Unlabeled praise is nonspecific • Good! • That's great! Labeled praise tells child specifically what is good • Thank you for sitting so quietly. • Increases the specific behavior • Increases child's self-esteem • Increases positive parent-child interaction

  24. CDI: The DO Rules Reflection “The moo-moo is in the barn.” “Yes, the cow is in the barn.” • Allows child to lead the conversation • Shows that parent is listening • Shows that parent understands • Improves and increases child’s speech • Repeating or paraphrasing Child Parent

  25. CDI: The DO Rules Imitation Doing the same thing the child is doing • Lets the child lead • Teaches parent how to “play” • Shows approval of child’s activity • Teaches child how to play with others • Sharing • Taking turns

  26. CDI: The DO Rules Description • Telling the child exactly what he or she is doing • “You’re drawing a sun.” • Lets the child lead • Lets child know you are paying attention and are interested • Shows approval of child’s activity • Models speech • Teaches vocabulary and concepts • Holds child’s attention to the task

  27. CDI: The DO Rules Enthusiasm • Conveying excitement by voice and gesture • “Wow!! You finished that SO quickly!” • Lets the child know the parent enjoys being with the child • Makes the play more fun for the child (and parent) • Adds a quality of warmth to the interaction

  31. COACHING

  32. CDI Coaching • PRIDE (basic) • Great reflection! • Good labeled praise! • Following • Good following his lead. • Describe what she’s doing. • Be sure to watch what she’s doing closely.

  33. CDI Coaching • Noticing positive behaviors • Wow -- she picked up the one she dropped • Attending to positive behavior • Wow -- you caught her being good! • Ignoring negative behavior • That was great ignoring his back talk

  34. CDI Coaching • Catching child doing positive opposites • NICE praising his polite talk • Touch, proximity • That’s nice the way you touch him when you praise him • Genuineness • That sounded like you meant it • Parent self-efficacy • You got him to play quietly! • Nice job of getting him back to the table.

  35. CDI Coaching • The treatment goals • Good teaching! • He seems a lot calmer today • She seems to be sharing more -- that will help her make friends at school. • You seem be having fun playing with your son. • You’ve got these skills down pat!

  36. CDI Coaching • Developmental expectations • Describe the colors so he can learn them. • He’s still too young to understand logic • Child’s motivations -- or lack of motivations • He seems to throw the puzzle pieces when doesn’t understand where they go. • I think he just doesn’t know how to ask for your help.

  37. Why Coach? • Parents think they already do these things • Verbal habits are ingrained • Coaching (therapist feedback) makes parents aware of what they say • Coaching (child’s feedback) makes parents aware of the immediate effects • Coaching heightens parent’s attention and motivation

  38. Why Coach? • Coaching provides parent support in actual difficult situations • Coaching demonstrates to parents (convinces parents) that change is possible • Coaching can help parents not to give up • Coaching is efficient -- makes it possible to address relevant problem areas and not spend time on areas that are not problems
