Now in a revised and updated 6th edition, the groundbreaking,
research-based approach to understanding and parenting children who
frequently exhibit severe fits of temper and other challenging
behaviors, from a distinguished clinician and pioneer in the field.
What's an explosive child? A child who responds to routine problems
with extreme frustration-crying, screaming, swearing, kicking,
hitting, biting, spitting, destroying property, and worse. A child
whose frequent, severe outbursts leave his or her parents feeling
frustrated, scared, worried, and desperate for help. Most of these
parents have tried everything-reasoning, explaining, punishing,
sticker charts, therapy, medication-but to no avail. They can't
figure out why their child acts the way he or she does; they wonder
why the strategies that work for other kids don't work for theirs;
and they don't know what to do instead. Dr. Ross Greene, a
distinguished clinician and pioneer in the treatment of kids with
social, emotional, and behavioral challenges, has worked with
thousands of explosive children, and he has good news: these kids
aren't attention-seeking, manipulative, or unmotivated, and their
parents aren't passive, permissive pushovers. Rather, explosive
kids are lacking some crucial skills in the domains of
flexibility/adaptability, frustration tolerance, and problem
solving, and they require a different approach to parenting.
Throughout this compassionate, insightful, and practical book, Dr.
Greene provides a new conceptual framework for understanding their
difficulties, based on research in the neurosciences. He explains
why traditional parenting and treatment often don't work with these
children, and he describes what to do instead. Instead of relying
on rewarding and punishing, Dr. Greene's Collaborative Problem
Solving model promotes working with explosive children to solve the
problems that precipitate explosive episodes, and teaching these
kids the skills they lack.
