Whats 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 cant figure out why their child acts the way he or she does; they wonder why the strategies that work for other kids do not work for theirs; and they do not know what to do instead.
Throughout this compassionate, insightful, and practical book, Dr. Greene provides a new conceptual framework for understanding their difficulties, based on research in the neuro_sciences.
He explains why traditional parenting and treatment often do not work with these children, and he describes what to do instead.
Instead of relying on rewarding and punishing, Dr. Greenes 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.
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 are not attention-seeking, manipulative, or unmotivated, and their parents are not 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.
