A lifesaving handbook for parents of children who are occasionally, or too often, 'out of control' Includes a bound-in twenty-minute DVD featuring Dr. Kazdin and his staff illustrating key concepts of the Kazdin Method Most child-behavior books are filled with advice that sounds reasonable, fits with what parents already believe about child-rearing, and is-as Dr. Kazdin proves- guaranteed to fail. The Kazdin Method for Parenting the Defiant Child makes available to parents for the first time Dr. Kazdin's proven program-one backed up by some of the most long-term and respected research devoted to any therapy for children. Kazdin shatters decades' worth of accumulated myths about tantrums, time-outs, punishments fitting the crime, and much more. With the practicality of Ferber and the warmth of Brazelton, Kazdin leads parents through every step of the Kazdin Method in action-how to use tone of voice, when and how to touch, how to lead your child in a 'practice' session, how to adjust your approach for different-age children, how to involve siblings, and more. The program is temporary, but the results are permanent-for very young children, adolescents, and even beyond. | The Kazdin Method For Parenting The Defiant Child by Alan E.
