[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 146806, member: 1991"] Chastity, I think that's my quote. I can really vouch for "The Explosive Child". Simply while I was reading it, difficult child 3's behaviour began to improve. That doesn't mean the book is magic, just that somehow I must have been modifying my discipline methods and also how I interacted with him, just from absorbing what I was reading, and the improvement was that fast, that dramatic. Of course,e when I sat down and REALLY began to concentrate on what I was doing with him, things just even better. It's not a cure. difficult child 3 is far from perfect. But he has improved so much that he's a lot easier to work with - positive feedback loop. I've written my own summary of the book, because husband just wasn't able to "get into" the book, he works so hard and such long hours that he kept falling asleep! But he read my summary, plus I explained it all to him (which helped me lock away the information in my own head) and this has helped. Have a look on Early Childhood, wither the forum or the archives, there should be some good discussion on this book. From what I read of that discussion, it's better than my summary. Wish I'd read it first - it could have saved me a lot of time! Marg [/QUOTE]
