Book excerpt: The Coping Power Program is designed for use with preadolescent and early adolescent aggressive children and their parents and is often delivered near the time of children's transition to middle school. Aggression is one of the most stable problem behaviors in childhood. If not dealt with effectively, it can lead to negative outcomes in adolescence such as drug and alcohol use, truancy and dropout, delinquency, and violence. This program has proven effective in helping to avoid these types of problems. The parent component of the program consists of 16 group meetings also held during the 5th and 6th grade school years. Parents are taught ways of reinforcing their children's positive behaviors, as well as effective discipline techniques for eliminating negative behaviors. Skills for improving family communication, providing academic support in the home, and building family cohesion are also a focus. Parents also learn how to give effective instructions and establish age-appropriate rules and expectations for their children at home. In addition to these basic parenting skills, the program describes relaxation techniques that parents can use to deal with their own stress. Tips for taking care of personal needs and effective time management strategies also help to ease the challenges of parenting an aggressive child.

Download or read book Self Reg written by Dr. Stuart Shanker and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2016-06-21 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There’s no such thing as a bad kid. That’s what a lifetime of experience has taught Dr. Stuart Shanker. No matter how difficult, out of control, distracted, or exhausted a child might seem, there’s a way forward: self-regulation. Overturning decades of conventional wisdom, this radical new technique allows children and the adults who care for them to regain their composure and peace of mind. Self-Reg is a groundbreaking book that presents an entirely new understanding of your child’s emotions and behavior and a practical guide for parents to help their kids engage calmly and successfully in learning and life. Grounded in decades of research and working with children and parents by Dr. Shanker, Self-Reg realigns the power of the parent-child relationship for positive change. Self-regulation is the nervous system’s way of responding to stress. We are seeing a generation of children and teens with excessively high levels of stress, and, as a result, an explosion of emotional, social, learning, behavior, and physical health problems. But few parents recognize the “hidden stressors” that their children are struggling with: physiological as well as social and emotional. An entrenched view of child rearing sees our children as lacking self-control or willpower, but the real basis for these problems lies in excessive stress. Self-regulation can dramatically improve a child’s mood, attention, and concentration. It can help children to feel empathy, and to cultivate the sorts of virtues that most parents know are vital for their child’s long-term wellbeing. Self-regulation brings about profound and lasting transformation that continues throughout life. Dr. Shanker translates decades of his findings from working with children into practical, prescriptive advice for parents, giving them concrete ways to develop their self-regulation skills and teach their children to do the same and engage successfully with life for optimal learning, social, and emotional growth.

Download or read book Managing Misbehavior in Kids written by Alan M Davick and published by . This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Break complex behaviors into easy-to-manage parts! Using the Miskidding process, Dr. Davick gives you the roadmap you need to decide when to "do something," how soon to do it, what "conditions" might need professional diagnosis and which behavior you would prefer and how to get your kid to do it. This book is not a theoretical treatise. Rather, it is the culmination of decades of experience by a physician who has dedicated his professional life to restoring kids' mental health and inducing them to make better behavior choices. Alan M. Davick, M.D., a Johns Hopkins trained Behavioral-Developmental Pediatrician, presents in this book 5 simple but powerful steps he uses in daily practice to recognize, prioritize, sort, redirect and manage behavior problems in kids. ***** "This book is a great resource for parents who are being introduced into the world of children with behavioral problems. For parents this situation can be terrifying. Dr. Davick does an excellent job in his book helping parents to learn to understand the importance of recognizing and dealing with these children's issues without increasing their fear and anger. This book also helps parents identify dangerous behavior that cannot be ignored, which he calls KILLER KIDDING, without causing a panic response which can alienate a child and lead to further problems. Overall this book was a pleasure to read with an organized flow. He creates simplicity for issues that in most situations appear to be an insurmountable obstacle." " Laura Youngfleisch, Masters of Arts (MA), Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) " " " "Dr. Davick, drawing on over 40 years' experience, has produced a tool that helps parents recognize, analyze, and modify unwanted behaviors from the cradle to the day an adolescent leaves home. With thoughtfulness and expertise, he has devised a method to distinguish healthy exploration and experimentation from behaviors that lead to unwanted consequences. And, with many practical illustrations, he suggests the most useful behavior modification methods that emphasize the consequences of children's actions when necessary (as well as assessing when intervention is unnecessary). Miskidding is not a reference book to gather dust on the shelf; it's a readable book that everyone supervising children will enjoy for its useful tips and easy to understand system: an extraordinary addition to the arsenal of tools available for all who care for and about kids." " Bennett E. Werner, M.D., ""Fellow of the American College of Physicians"
