Behavior and Discipline

Sometimes a child needs a different world view -- one that doesn't insist on him being first at everything he does.

After such a serious infraction, these teens will have to work to reclaim their position in the family as people who can be trusted.

When a parent is consistently too harsh with her kids, a family therapist can help to restore a happier, healthier family life.

Whatever you do, don't let someone start convincing you that you could control your child's impulses by medicating him.

The reward-and-punishment system does a poor job at teaching kids to be responsible for their own behavior; it makes parents responsible for it.
