Description: In the informal, witty, and admirably clear style that has proven so successful for the best-selling book Toddler Taming, The Good Child Guide offers a superbly comprehensible step-by-step method for understanding the reasons for children's misbehavior, reasserting parental control, and encouraging them to behave well again. Dr. Swanson explains the psychology of why children do what they do, shows how emotion, temperament, and external stress can bear upon their behavior, evaluates many strategies of response, from rewards to time-out, and considers more serious behavioral problems like school refusal, night terrors, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
