What to Do About Your Troubled Child

Mehr zum Buch

As children develop, certain behaviors may occasionally be noted. However, when these behaviors become recurrent, it may indicate a deeper issue. If you've observed something unusual in your child's actions, it’s crucial to investigate further before the situation worsens. This guide aims to equip parents with the knowledge needed to uncover potential problems. Early detection and proper treatment of behavioral disorders can significantly reduce or even eliminate them. Unfortunately, many issues remain undiagnosed for too long, leading to irreversible consequences. The book is divided into two parts. The first part examines six common behavioral disorders, with each chapter dedicated to one disorder. It includes a set of questions to help determine if your child shows enough signs to merit further investigation. Each chapter outlines symptoms, risk factors, professional diagnostic methods, and traditional treatment options like behavioral therapy and medication. The second part explores complementary treatment approaches, including lifestyle changes, nutrition, and useful programs and devices. Dismissing concerning behaviors as typical childhood phases can prevent timely intervention. By adolescence, these disorders may become entrenched. Now is the time to take action and let this guide assist you in addressing your child's needs.
