The Yell-Free Parent’s Guide to Disciplining an Explosive Child

No-Drama Strategies I Discovered to Discipline My Easily Frustrated Child

De: Grace Cohen

Narrado por: Elmire Q. Kidd

Do you have fiercely inflexible children? Do you have difficulty bargaining with them just to follow you? Have you tried pleading with them just to stop their tantrums? Does your child demand too much at the most inappropriate of times?

Your child might be the explosive type, the ones who burst into anger when they don’t get what they want. They may be very agreeable at times, but they can be a real pain to handle when they reach their boiling point. You might have tried bargaining, negotiating, and pleading with them to no avail. At some point, you may even have reached your own limit.

This book will help you cope with these kinds of children. You may have arrived at the end of your wits and sought several therapists already. You may feel that your cause is impossible, but this book will show that your child has a great capacity to change. There is a better way than just making them obey you or letting them off the hook all of the time. Your children need your help more than your pleading.

In this book, you will learn:

• The four sets of skills that will help your child become an empathic person
• The three-step approach to talk to your child without the drama
• The common parenting methods and why it doesn’t work in the long term
• The different phases before the explosion and how to prevent it
• How to help your child mature through a simple and systematic method of conversation
• The different perspectives in dealing with these children
• Better ways to respond to your child

You don’t need to constantly beat yourself up at how undisciplined your kids are or how timid you are as a parent. More than focusing on your weaknesses, this book will help you discover your strength as a parent. Your child depends on you to help them think better. Let this book be your guide as you tame the fire of your explosive child.

Decent book

This was a decent book and provided a good point of reference for some people. There is some good advice, but lack some supportive material. This is a layman’s term book that can help some people with addressing their explosive child.

not as useful

I found it not as useful as I thought it would be. I inherited a covid orphan and she is both behavior and other mental health I don't yell often but figured this would offer skills to cope it does not. In my situation it's not helpful but I'm sure someone else will get something from it

Not very helpful

Review and review and not enough “meat” to the book. Was hoping for more info

Some good information, not exactly what I was hoping for.

First, I did not realize this was written from a layman’s perspective prior to purchase- that’s on me. I feel that the content from this book was valuable, but repetitive and dumbed down. The first several chapters feel a bit superfluous and the real value to me, is in the outlining of the four systems of the brain and tying that to how you approach explosive situations with your child: TLDR: I just feel that I would have gotten more benefit and less repetition from a professional’s explanation of the same systems and information.

Informational but needed more.

This felt more like an introduction to this subject than a full book. Helpful to know I’m not alone with this, but could have used more in-depth suggestions/instructions. Still helpful just leaves something more to be desired.
