Summary |
Public concerns about youth violence lead to questions about how professionals can help parents whose children are at risk for becoming violent. In this book the author suggests a model of parent therapy for families with aggressive school-age children. Responsive Parent Therapy expands upon and updates current parent-training programs that target primarily preschool children. -/// Responsive Parent Therapy assumes that the socialization of aggressive children requires sustained participation in a particular kind of parent-child relationship--one characterized by emotional acceptance, behavioral containment, and prosocial guidance and modeling. The chief task for practitioners is to help parents find the combination of acceptance, containment, and prosocial guidance that is most realistic given the parent, the child, and the social context for child rearing. This book outlines the strategies for doing that kind of therapeutic work. Parenting domains that serve important functions--goals, family structure, and parental self-care--are also addressed.
