How on earth did you find a behaviorist who would consider the " why

bother " of the behavior without just barrelling in and trying to

extinguish it? I don't know how many times I tried to explain why I

thought my child was exhibiting a behavior, only to be told, " we don't

care WHY " . I can give quite a few examples of times when someone posted

on a local internet chat group about a behavior the behaviorists were

trying to extinguish -- swishing spit and spitting is one that is common

that comes to mind--and the behaviorists never considered a medical

reason, like a sore throat, and went about the business of putting it

" on extinction " without even wanting to know the " why bother " .

That frustrates me so!
