Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER From a leading child psychologist comes this groundbreaking new understanding of children’s behavior, offering insight and strategies to support both parents and children. Nominated for Malcolm Gladwell, Susan Cain, Adam Grant, and Daniel H. Pink's Next Big Idea Club Over her decades as a clinical psychologist, Dr. Mona Delahooke has routinely counseled distraught parents who struggle to manage their children’s challenging, sometimes oppositional behaviors. These families are understandably focused on correcting or improving a child’s lack of compliance, emotional outbursts, tantrums, and other “out of control” behavior. But, as she has shared with these families, a perspective shift is needed. Behavior, no matter how challenging, is not the problem but a symptom; a clue about what is happening in a child’s unique physiologic makeup. In Brain-Body Parenting, Dr. Delahooke offers a radical new approach to parenting based on her clinical experience as well as the most recent research in neuroscience and child psychology. Instead of a “top-down” approach to behavior that focuses on the thinking brain, she calls for a “bottom-up” approach that considers the essential role of the entire nervous system, which produces children’s feelings and behaviors. When we begin to understand the biology beneath the behavior, suggests Dr. Delahooke, we give our children the resources they need to grow and thrive—and we give ourselves the gift of a happier, more connected relationship with them. Brain-Body Parenting empowers parents with tools to help their children develop self-regulation skills while also encouraging parental self-care, which is crucial for parents to have the capacity to provide the essential “co-regulation” children need. When parents shift from trying to secure compliance to supporting connection and balance in the body and mind, they unlock a deeper understanding of their child, encouraging calmer behavior, more harmonious family dynamics, and increased resilience.

This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an evidence-based framework for replacing harmful, restrictive behavior management practices with safe and effective alternatives. The first half summarizes the concept and history of restraint and seclusion in mental health applications used with impaired elders, children with intellectual disabilities, and psychiatric patients. Subsequent chapters provide robust data and make the case for behavior management interventions that are less restrictive without compromising the safety of the patients, staff, or others. This volume presents the necessary steps toward the gradual elimination of restraint-based strategies and advocates for practices based in client rights and ethical values. Topics featured in this volume include: The epidemiology of restraints in mental health practice. Ethical and legal aspects of restraint and seclusion. Current uses of restraint and seclusion. Applied behavior analysis with general characteristics and interventions. The evidence for organizational interventions. Other approaches to non-restrictive behavior management. Reducing Restraint and Restrictive Behavior Management Practices is a must-have resource for researchers, clinicians and practitioners, and graduate students in the fields of developmental psychology, behavioral therapy, social work, psychiatry, and geriatrics.

Download or read book Dangerous Use of Seclusion and Restraints in Schools Remains Widespread and Difficult to Remedy written by US Senate. Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is no evidence that physically restraining or putting children in unsupervised seclusion in the K-12 school system provides any educational or therapeutic benefit to a child. In fact, use of either seclusion or restraints in non-emergency situations poses significant physical and psychological danger to students. Yet the first round of data collected by the United States Department of Education in 2009-2010 demonstrated that these same practices that are prohibited in other settings were used in U.S. schools at least 66,000 times in a single school year. Because fifteen percent of school districts failed to report data, however, this figure likely underestimates use of seclusion and restraints. In an effort to better understand the frequency and severity of the use of seclusion and restraints, and to better understand obstacles facing families with children subjected to these practices, the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP) Majority staff undertook an investigation. The investigation sought to better understand the types of seclusion and restraints practices occurring in U.S. schools, and the obstacles faced by families seeking to stop the use of these practices or seeking restitution for harm caused by these practices. The cases outlined in this report tell a story of lost opportunity and negative effects that extend far into the future. For the students profiled here, their educational experiences were marred by the use of practices with no educational benefits, often repeatedly for long periods of time over many instructional days that reduced their learning opportunities. The investigation documented the inability of some families to effectively address the use of seclusion and restraints and to positively change school practices. By passing legislation to permit the use of restraints only in emergency situations and to eliminate the use of seclusion, Congress and states can help schools to implement interventions that promote positive learning environments, promote better academic outcomes, and prevent behaviors that put children and personnel in danger. Lessons learned from these cases should speed the adoption of positive approaches to working with families and the implementation of positive preventative behavior practices in schools. Recommendations include: (1) Passing legislation that would limit the use of restraints to emergency situations only, when there is an imminent threat of serious harm to students themselves or to others, and would discontinue all use of unsupervised and unmonitored seclusion; (2) Annual collecting of data that documents the frequency, duration and intensity of the use of seclusion and restraints in schools; (3) Training programs to ensure all teachers, administrators and other school personnel know how to implement preventative programming and positive interventions; (4) Requiring notification of a child's parents within 24 hours when seclusion or restraints are used against a child; (5) Eliminating the use of seclusion and restraints, which have been shown to have no educational benefit, as an educational or therapeutic component of a student's individualized education plan (IEP); and (6) Amending the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) to allow families to file civil actions to stop the practice of seclusion and/or restraints in court before exhausting remedies available under IDEA. Appended are: (1) Case Studies; and (2) Comments from Abington Heights School District in Pennsylvania.
