"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."--Publisher.
