The explosive child

In this book, Dr. Ross Greene provides a comprehensive approach to understanding and parenting children who exhibit explosive behaviors.

He explains that these behaviors are often the result of brain-based deficits in flexibility and frustration tolerance, rather than willful disobedience.

Greene advocates for the Collaborative & Proactive Solutions (CPS) model, which involves collaborative problem-solving and defusing explosive episodes.

The book offers valuable tools for coping and reducing tension and hostility within families, emphasizing the importance of teaching children self-regulation skills and modeling flexibility.
