This book helps adults to understand firesetting behaviour in
children and teens and provides strategies to work with them to
address the behaviour. Drawing upon the latest juvenile firesetting
research and utilising child development theory to underpin its
safety messages, the book explores why young people might set fires
in the first place and contextualises firesetting in terms of
communication and gaining the attention of carers and other adults.
The chapters lay out practical, tried-and-tested steps that
professionals and carers can take to address firesetting behaviour,
and suggests how to further support any child or teen who sets
fires. This includes summaries of the latest evidence-based support
strategies and a range of creative activities that can be used in
direct work with children and teenagers who set fires, tailored to
specific age ranges. Combining expert advice on firesetting
behaviour with straightforward practices, this comprehensive book
can be used by anyone working with young people to help them
intervene and prevent it.
