Description
Helping Your Child Regain Control When Anger Takes Over For some children, angry outbursts and frustration are not just occasional setbacks, but a persistent pattern that affects their school life, social relationships, and family dynamics. Dr. Tim Murphy, a child psychologist with extensive experience in addressing childhood anger, offers practical guidance to parents who feel helpless in the face of their child's escalating behavior. By identifying the ten key characteristics of an angry child, Dr. Murphy provides examples from his clinical practice to help adults guide their children towards more constructive responses. He also explains how a parent's own behavior can sometimes trigger or exacerbate meltdowns, and offers strategies for managing these situations effectively. This book is a valuable resource for parents who want to understand the causes of their child's anger and develop effective ways to support them in regaining control over their emotions.
