Challenging Child Behaviors:
Helping All Children Be Successful

Audience: Parents and Professionals

Why do some children “lose it” over seemingly insignificant issues? Have you ever been surprised by the perfectly mellow child who suddenly turns into an uncooperative monster, unable to get along with anyone else? What do you do when everyday activities turn into battles no one wins? How do you respond when a child shouts, “You can’t make me!” What do you do when they won’t listen? 

Challenging behaviors are about feelings and needs and the physical reactions they generate within the body.  Recognizing the “physiology” of behavior and working with the resulting emotions is the key to stopping those behaviors before they ever start.
