 Written on October 18, 2007 Summary: Very helpful This book can be very helpful to parents diagnosed as ADHD who do not respond to the classical behavior modification programs--or whose negative behaviors are so numerous that one cannot try correcting them all at once. The book suggests creating a kind of "basket" system to help modify your child's behavior--Basket A being for things that are simply too dangerous to permit, under any circumstances, Basket B for things one needs to address firmly, and Basket C being for behaviors one chooses to set aside for the time being. The book strongly suggests negotiating with oppositional children, thus giving them a voice in decisions made about them. Of course, the trick is to give the child only choices that are acceptable to begin with. A very useful guide for children whom doctors do not understand, and cannot seem to diagnose correctly. Written on October 5, 2007 Summary: A Must-Read for Parents of Challenging Children Ross Greene has written an incredibly insightful book about the kids for whom traditional parenting techniques just don't work. He explains well why kids who yell, scream, and generally melt down over what seem to be -- to parents and others -- inconsequential things can't just "be flexible." And he explains well why the traditional carrot-and-stick approach of rewards and consequences just doesn't work with these kids. As a parent of a child who went from colic as an infant to tantrums as a toddler to explosions and melt downs as a child, I know what he's talking about, and I've tried all those other techniques that haven't worked. Greene lets parents see that kids who lack frustration tolerance and flexibility need extra support and a different approach to learning those skills, the way a kid with a reading disability needs extra support and a different approach to reading. It all makes so much sense, but is a great departure from the typical limit-setting approaches. Once I started reading it, I couldn't put it down. It's really helping me to become the parent I want to be! Written on August 14, 2007 Summary: A great guide for parents struggling with an explosive child! I was pleasantly surprised by the straightforward approach to this book. Instead of a psychobabble, Dr. Greene explains potential reasons your child may be struggling to control his/her outbursts in language a layperson can understand. More importantly, we found very practical, effective help for dealing with these frustrating explosions that have become very disruptive to our family. I feel hopeful after reading this book that we can finally help our child deal with the frustrations of life in a healthy, appropriate manner. If you are looking for solutions without thousands of dollars in therapy and medication that may not be warranted for your child (although sometimes it certainly is), I would highly recommend this book. Written on August 13, 2007 Summary: Review on the book Explosive Child I think it is a very didatic book for both parents with this type of problems in their families or for professionals. Written on July 25, 2007 Summary: not a cure all, but the most helpful approach yet Last year my 16 year old stepdaughter moved in with us. She has ADHD and ODD. I had never even HEARD of ODD at that time. I could not believe that a 16 year old could throw TANTRUMS but she has my 4 year old nephew beat. She could melt down over the smallest things! This book confirmed what I knew in my heart - that she doesn't WANT to be a bad kid and she DOES want our LOVE. Learning to negotiate with her in a positive way has been incredibly helpful and there have been much fewer meltdowns since my husband and I read this book. |
