If you’re in Ship Bottom Borough and searching for answers about Throwing Objects & Property Destruction, you’re not alone. Families across Ocean County ask us about this regularly—and ABA therapy works precisely because it finds the reason behind the behavior, not just the behavior itself.

About Ship Bottom Borough: Ship Bottom is known as the 'Gateway to Long Beach Island' because the Route 72 causeway lands there, the island's only road connection to the mainland. The Long Beach Island Consolidated School District district provides some autism services through IEP, but ABA therapy through insurance fills the gaps school cannot—including after-school hours, summers, and the clinical intensity your child’s IEP may not authorize.

The function behind the behavior

Throwing and destruction can be driven by frustration, a bid for attention or a reaction, escape from a demand, or sensory feedback (the sight and sound can be reinforcing). A BCBA conducts a functional assessment to determine which applies, because the plan depends on the cause.

Safer outlets and skills

ABA teaches replacement behaviors — requesting a break, asking for help, or appropriate ways to seek sensory input — and arranges the environment to reduce triggers and keep everyone safe. Positive reinforcement makes the new behavior the easier choice. Related: challenging behavior and emotional regulation.
