The lives of young people with behavioral problems tend to be among the least satisfying. Their families are likely to suffer, their teachers are often disappointed, and their peers constantly wonder what's the matter with them. James Kauffman, professor emeritus of education at the University of Virginia, says it doesn't have to be that way.
Believing in the power of early intervention and prevention of behavior problems, Dr. Kauffman shows us how to recognize trouble and deal with it before it's too late. In his words, "We see that there were signs of trouble brewing yet no one took them seriously."
This book takes behavior problems seriously, addressing their many causes, the dilemma of early identification, and proven effective strategies for effective intervention.
