Book Reviews of The Explosive Child: A New Approach for Understanding and Parenting Easily Frustrated, Chronically Inflexible Children
Book Review: Dr. Greene's approach worked immediately with our daughter.
Summary: 5 Stars
Even after reading just a couple of chapters, I had a much better understanding of what is behind my daughter's inflexible behavior that causes so much stress for her and the whole family. Having that understanding made it possible for us to reduce our emotional entanglement in her explosive episodes. That, in turn, freed us to help prevent inflexible responses from turning into full-scale meltdowns. Dr. Greene's approach of helping her get "unstuck" from situations where she couldn't make necessary transitions worked the very first time I tried it. Dr. Greene compassionately explains the causes of explosive behavior, offers instant support and effective strategies, and offers hope that with proper treatment, we can look forward to easier times. There must be many families, locked in ongoing battles with inflexible children, who can benefit from this caring book.
