Managing the Defiant Child
A Guide to Parent Training
Russell A. Barkley
Childhood defiance--the most common complaint of parents seeking professional help for
their children--exerts a tremendous amount of wear-and-tear on families. This
information-packed video brings to life a proven approach to behavior management, and
shows clinicians, school practitioners, parents, students, and teachers how enhanced
parenting skills can dramatically improve the parent-child relationship.
Viewers see vignettes from actual parent training sessions, and hear group leader Dr. Gwen
Edwards discuss concepts of child management; outline principles of managing defiant
behavior; and review progress with group participants. Informative commentary from Dr.
Barkley provides a clear picture of why interactions with children are a "two-way
street," effective incentive systems for motivating children, and the crucial role of
parent training
