“I learned how disruptions in human development can lead to difficult behaviors that aren’t within the person’s control.”
Atypical Development & Behaviors
Learning Objectives
Understand the fundamentals of typical vs. atypical human development
Examine ‘natural and unnatural’ disruptions to healthy development
Learn how disabilities and disorders relate to behaviors
Description
It is important to understand the link between atypical human development and different types of problematic, unhealthy, or even violent behaviors. Understanding this link will enable teams to design more informed, thoughtful, and effective responses. And, realizing that many behaviors are not a ‘choice’ but actually related to someone’s disability or disorder, can help staff manage their expectations and avoid reactivity.
