Susan was having trouble with the behavior of her 5 year old daughter Jenny. Susan was really beside herself and just didn’t know what to do. She decided to visit a behavioral psychologist to seek advice.
Susan enters the office of the psychologist with her daughter Jenny and take a seat.
How can I help you today, says the psychologist in a very formal voice?
Well, says Susan, I have a problem with my daughter Jenny’s behavior and I really just don’t know what to do. I feel so uncomfortable and helpless sometimes and I just cannot control her.
They talked for a while and then the psychologist asked if Susan had a specific example of Jenny’s behavior challenge.
Yes, says Susan. Just yesterday I went to the local super market to pick up some groceries and as we were walking down the isle Jenny kept putting chocolates, candy, biscuits and toys into our trolley. When I told her to stop it she just continued.
When we arrived at the check out I started to take all those items out of the trolley and Jenny started crying, shouting and even was sitting on the ground pounding her arms and legs in to the ground in protest. I was so embarrassed and shocked, I just didn’t know what to do.
The psychologist crossed his arms, put his hand to his chin, looking up towards the ceiling in deep thought for what seemed like forever.
Then all of a sudden he shouts out, I’ve got it, I’ve got it, I know what to do.
Susan almost shocked by the sudden outburst says, what is it, how can we fix her behavior?
The psychologist looks Susan in the eye and says, next time Jenny starts that same behavior in the super market, I want you to get down on the floor and do exactly the same as Jenny but do it louder.
Susan immediately looks at the psychologist and says, oh no, no no no, I could never do that…
