   Summary: THE EXPLOSIVE CHILD
Gave insight for strategic solutions for building self confidence in my son. The "role play" used in the book gave insight from my sons perspective on how he perceives the situation. Very helpful.

   Summary: excellent
A lifesaver- this book offers techniques to help tantrum-prone children for whom more "conventional" parenting techniques just don't work. No time-outs, tokens or rewards charts. Now in its third edition.

   Summary: Finally, someone 'gets it'
This book is a handbook for parents and practitioners alike. Instead of applying a heavy handed 'one size fits all' program, this author finally understands that you have to acknowledge the fact that explosive children are not in a place to reason or be disciplined during a melt down. In no way do I advocate for reinforcing a tantrum. However, when a child is truly 'out of control', they often need a safe place to fall and a chance to gather themselves before any real communication can occur. As a parent, I have found that sometimes a supportive, nurturing approach to a child having a tantrum is the only way to get through to the child. Also, by offering support, the child learns coping strategies to calm and relax oneself. As a practitioner working with children with ADHD, I have found the same to be true. While the rules and boundaries have to be clear, a child having a meltdown needs support, not discipline. In this way, I can truly 'reach' the child. Dr. Greene is one of the first authors to understand this.

   Summary: Practical, loving help for dealing with difficult kids
This is an excellent book which combines research with hands-on help for parents, teachers and anyone who loves emotionally unstable children. Here are long-term, corrective, loving solutions. I highly recommend it.

   Summary: The Explosive Child Works
As an elementary school consultant, I have worked with over 15,000 children. Teaching them to behave in a respectful manner and still retain their dignity and independence can be quite a challenge. In frustration people often resort to some type of force, reward or punishment. Although it works for the adults, it is not at all good for the child. The method "The Explosive Child" uses is by far the most effective, productive, and respectful approach I have seen. It is heart warming to see kids' eyes light up and become engaged in problem-solving when you follow this process. To know that you are teaching children skills that will make their whole life better is the best part. I highly recommend it to all parents and teachers.
