Synopsis

The clinically proven five-week program for improving your child's behavior--fully updated and revised

In 1996, Parenting the Strong-Willed Child established itself as a seminal guide for parents who want to manage challenging behavior with parenting techniques grounded in positive reinforcement, without yelling or harming a child's self-esteem. The authors provide a proven, step-by-step five-week program giving parents the tools they need to successfully build upon their child's strengths while effectively managing challenging behavior. Packed with brand-new content, this fourth edition has been thoroughly updated to integrate state-of-the-field scientific and clinical advances, providing a timely and thorough response to the current issues facing parents of young children. It addresses important new topics, including:

• Understanding parenting and child behavior in context, including effects of the global pandemic, racial disparities, financial strain, and other parenting challenges
• Greater opportunities for parents to learn proven parenting skills for challenging child behaviors such as noncompliance, whining, and tantrums
• Help for parents to apply new skills to the specific problem behaviors they are facing
• Strategies for linking the five-week program skills to common parenting challenges, including screen time
• Understanding how the proven five-week program can help parents of children with ADHD given advances in science and clinical practice in this area
• The importance of parent self-care as they learn the program

Improve the life of your child--and yourself--with valuable lessons and science-backed advice that has helped a generation of parents raise happy, healthy children.
