Books like The challenging child by Stanley I. Greenspan


Most children fall into five basic personality types that stem from inborn physical characteristics: the sensitive child, the self-absorbed child, the defiant child, the inattentive child, and the active/aggressive child. Stanley Greenspan, M.D., is the first to show parents how to match their parenting to the challenges of their particular child. He identifies and vividly describes these five universal temperaments and then, with great empathy, shows parents how each of these children actually experiences the world and how to use daily childrearing to enhance an individual child's strengths and talents.

Your defiant child by 7383411|Russell Barkley book cover

📘 Your defiant child
 by Russell Barkley

"Every child has "ornery" moments, but more than 1 in 20 American children exhibit behavioral problems that are out of control. If you are struggling with an unyielding or combative child, this book offers you the understanding and guidance you need. Drawing on Dr. Russell A. Barkley's many years of work with parents and children, the book clearly explains what causes defiance, when it becomes a problem, and how it can be resolved. Its comprehensive eight-step program emphasizes consistency and cooperation, promoting changes through a system of praise, rewards, and mild punishment. Filled with practical charts, questionnaires, and checklists, Your Defiant, Child helps you get your child's behavior back on track and reduce family stress overall."--BOOK JACKET.
