534- Your Child's Explosive Behavior: A Roadmap to Radical Change

He argues that such behavior is not a deliberate choice but rather a symptom of skill deficits in areas such as flexibility, frustration tolerance, emotion regulation, and problem-solving. The book outlines the CPS model, which focuses on identifying and solving the underlying problems that lead to these behaviors, rather than punishing or modifying the behaviors themselves.
