Synopsis
Children who suffer intense temper outbursts, extreme noncompliance, and verbal and physical aggression are not seen as wilfully disobedient by Dr Greene. Rather, he provides a compassionate, practical approach for parents., What's an explosive child? A child who responds to routine problems with extreme frustration-crying, screaming, swearing, kicking, hitting, biting, spitting, destroying property, and worse. A child whose frequent, severe outbursts leave his or her parents feeling frustrated, scared, worried, and desperate for help.Most of these parents have tried everything-reasoning, explaining, punishing, sticker charts, therapy, medication-but to no avail.They can't figure out why their child acts the way he or she does; they wonder why the strategies that work for other kids don't work for theirs; and they don't know what to do instead. Dr. Ross Greene, a distinguished clinician and pioneer in the treatment of kids with social, emotional, and behavioral challenges, has worked with thousands of explosive children, and he has good news: these kids aren't attention-seeking, manipulative, or unmotivated, and their parents aren't passive, permissive pushovers. Rather, explosive kids are lacking some crucial skills in the domains of flexibility/adaptability, frustration tolerance, and problem solving, and they require a different approach to parenting. Throughout this compassionate, insightful, and practical book, Dr. Greene provides a new conceptual framework for understanding their difficulties, based on research in the neurosciences. He explains why traditional parenting and treatment often don't work with these children, and he describes what to do instead.Instead of relying on rewarding and punishing, Dr. Greene's Collaborative Problem Solving model promotes working with explosive children to solve the problems that precipitate explosive episodes, and teaching these kids the skills they lack.

    Excellent service! The Cd collection was brand new as the vendor described. The price of the item was the best I found on eBay and the shipping was free! The packaging was very professional, there was not a chance for the merchandise to be damaged. The delivery was done at the speed of light and communication with the seller was fast and very responsive. Overall I had an amazing experience with SweetPlumBooks, they do have excellent prices, fast delivery and outstanding costumer service.

  • Defiant child?

    Easy reading for confused and exhaunted parents struggling to understand their defiant, unrulely and often arrogant child! Gives genuine reasons into their childs behaviour and cultivates sympathetic responses within the adult which helps to diffuse the often billigerent temperament of the child. Realising adult reaction can be of paramount importance to restoring harmony, hope and better relations.

  • Fantastic Book

    For a child with Sensory Processing Disorder this book has been very helpful in giving insight & many good techniques in handling a child of this nature, which can be very difficult. It was highly recommended by a therapist and is well worth reading.

  • Explosive child describes the content and must read.

    The subject of this book helped me understand my grand daughter and every thing in it proves we all can misunderstand children. Parents are good and misunderstood because the child is misunderstood. Good read would suggest buying it from this writer Ross Greene.
