Subject: [tri-med] Behavior Modification



We have an eight year old boy diagnosed at the age of one with trisomy 
mosaic 8.  He has had 12 operations to correct feet and tendon issues and 
has been through therapy for audio recognition.  He is involved in 
mainstream education, is functioning above his grade level in IQ.  Our 
problem is he has a focus issue where when he focuses on the computer or a 
book, he can not focus to go to the bathroom.  He has developed almost a 
compulsive nature toward electronic games to the point of sneaking time on 
the computer when he has been asked to play with books, puzzles, or toys. 
We would like the name of a therapist is the Pinellas County, FL area, who 
can help us with positive Behavior Modification.  We do not use punitive 
actions (time outs, etc.) as they only seem to frustrate him and he can not 
seem to relate them to the misbehavior.  We need tools to help this young 
man.  We know the Behavior Modification has to start with us; but we don't 
know what to do.  Does anyone know o
 f a person in our area whop specializes in this particular issue.  thank 
you in advance.
