Is it "just a phase," or could your child be headed for serious trouble?If you sense that your child is seriously troubled, you may feel bewildered, helpless, ineffective. How can you stop your child from throwing away his or her life? How can you avoid thinking that you've failed as a parent? In this newly revised and expanded edition of the classic guide Before It's Too Late, clinical psychologist Stanton E. Samenow explains how to break the useless cycle of blame and take corrective action. Topics include:How to understand the personality of the antisocial childHow to tell the difference between a "phase" and a pattern of misbehaviorHow to identify the seven common manifestations of antisocial behaviorHow to cope more effectively as the parent of an older antisocial childHow to avoid the six common mistakes that prevent parents from taking actionHow to step in—early and effectively—before bad behavior becomes entrenched

FORMATPaperback LANGUAGEEnglish CONDITIONBrand New Publisher Description

For parents worried that their kids' misbehaviour is more than "just a phase" here, in paperback and updated with a new introduction, is the guide to getting their troubled children back on the right track - while they still can. With today's headlines reflecting our youth's increasingly disturbing behaviour, it's little wonder that parents of "problem children" often feel frightened and powerless when confronting their kids' antisocial behaviour. In this unique and practical book, clinical psychologist Stanton Samenow helps concerned parents and professionals understand the personalities of problem children, and suggests remedial steps to take NOW, before the patterns become entrenched. Laying out the seven common manifestations of antisocial behaviour, and the six common errors in parental thinking, Dr Samenow's plan is realistically tough, yet compassionate and optimistic, showing parents how to intervene and steer their children in the right direction.
