SUMMARY:Helping Oppositional Children & Teens with Kenneth Barish\, Ph.D.\, Clinical Professor of Psychology\, Weill Cornell Medicine
DESCRIPTION:Even in less stressful and uncertain times\, a child or teen’s oppositional behavior can be challenging. Many families become stuck in escalating\, vicious cycles of negative interactions: criticism and punishment leading to anger and defiance (or secretiveness and withdrawal) then more criticism\, and more defiance.\nThese cycles erode the warm and supportive interactions that are essential to children’s emotional vitality. Parents and caregivers feel they’ve “tried everything” and just don’t know what to do. \nIn this webinar\, award-winning author Ken Barish\, Ph.D. will make some unique recommendations. While most programs for parenting oppositional behavior focus on consequences for a child’s behavior — e.g.\, rewarding positive behaviors and punishing defiant behaviors — he feels they often miss the big picture. Thus\, Ken will discuss a different way of thinking about children’s behavior problems. Drawing from psychoanalysis\, developmental psychology\, and neuroscience\, he will describe a proactive plan that repairs family relationships\, replacing argument and defiance with understanding\, appreciation\, and problem-solving. \nHis four general principles\, and “21 Rules” promote good behavior\, while protecting a child’s emotional health. Ken’s teachings lead to better conversations\, more empathy towards others\, and can restore feelings of joyfulness and pride in the family. \nWhether you’re a parent\, a grandparent\, a caregiver\, or a therapist\, this webinar is a must. \n\nWE HOPE YOU’LL JOIN US!  \nPlease this registration button to reserve your seat on Zoom.\nNote: A recording will be available after the event\, but you must register to receive the link. \nRegister for this Event \n\nTHIS IS A BY CONTRIBUTION EVENT \nClick on the contribution button and pay what you are able.\nThe suggested amount is $10 (US)\, but if you are not able to contribute at this time\, please simply register.\n \nPlease Make a Contribution to Help Us Cover Expenses — Thank You! \n  \n\nAbout our presenter \nKen Barish\, Ph.D. (photo copyright Michael B.
