The media today suggests that many young people are becoming
involved in anti-social behaviour. But increasing amounts of
legislation and ASBOs neither seem to have addressed the real
issues nor solved the problem, and may simply add to the
frustrations of all those involved.
Kathy Hampson s comprehensive guide is based on up-to-date,
grass-roots experience of working with young people with
anti-social behaviour. Including ready-to-use, photocopiable
resources suitable for a wide variety of settings, it examines the
background to these highly topical issues, enabling the reader to
contextualise and better identify with the problems faced by the
young people they work with. The easy-to-reproduce,
tried-and-tested exercises:
- are for use with individuals or groups
- address the issues involved in offending behaviour
- can be easily modified to cater for a range of learning styles,
abilities and maturity, (and shows how you can identify which
exercises suit which young people)
- include discussion scenarios, worksheets, cartoons, card games
and creative activities
- can be used to dissuade young people from getting involved in
anti-social behaviour, and to enable them to make better
decisions
The book includes an appraisal of current research on the issues
surrounding anti-social behaviour and, in particular, risk factors
that may be involved behind the scenes in young people s lives. A
section on working with parents helps them to support their
children, improve their parenting skills and to know where, and
how, to ask for help.
This is an essential resource offering constructive, practical
solutions to anti-social behaviour in young people between the ages
of 10 and 18. It will be invaluable for those working
professionally or voluntarily in schools, with youth groups, youth
offending teams, youth inclusion projects, faith groups,
anti-social behaviour teams, or for anyone whose work offers the
opportunity, or requires them, to challenge anti-social and
offending behaviour.
