Another option is to remove the events map and use the manual version of what the events map sets up.
onShow: function() {
this.enableClick();
},
enableClick: function() {
$(".clickContainer").on("click", this.onClickContainer);
},
disableClick: function() {
$(".clickContainer").off("click", this.onClickContainer);
},
onClickContainer: function() {
// do stuff
}
