Depressed Child - A Parent's Guide for Rescusing Kids (Paperback)

In this work, the author of The Defiant Child tackles the thinking patterns and beliefs that almost always underlie depression in children and teenagers. He emphasizes how parents can talk to their children about what they are thinking and feeling. The book explores how children develop a negative set of beliefs about themselves and helps parents learn how to modify their children's self-perception. Chapters include discussion of: what to do when a child says I want to die; clinical stories about children who believe they are no good; children who cannot cope with extraordinary stress and develop an inner punitive voice; hints for parents of well-adapted children to avoid falling prey to low self-esteem bullies; and the professional treatment options, from counselling to medications.
