When is behavior modification useful and most successful?
What will be an ideal response?
In dealing with a very difficult child, behavior modification may help regain a manageable relationship with the child, if the child agrees to this. It will be most successful if the child has enthusiastically agreed to participate in the plan. If the child likes and respects the adult and really wants to change, he or she may be surprisingly willing to participate in a voluntary behavior modification plan, at least during the periods when the child is calm and logical. During the process of behavior modification, the child must be helped toward eventual weaning from external reinforcement and toward increasing internal control
