Lost at School

Why Our Kids with Behavioral Challenges are Falling Through the Cracks and How We Can Help Them

Ross W. Greene

Detentions, suspensions and expulsions are the established tools of school discipline, but there's a big problem with these strategies: they are ineffective for most of the students to whom they are applied.

Lost and Found

Helping Behaviorally Challenging Students (and, While You're At It, All the Others)

Ross W. Greene

Implement a more constructive approach to difficult students Lost and Found is a follow-up to Dr. Ross Greene's landmark works, The Explosive Child and Lost at School, providing educators with highly practical, explicit guidance on implementing his Collaborative & Proactive Solutions (CPS) Problem Solving model with behaviorally-challenging students. While the first two books described Dr. Greene's positive, constructive approach and described implementation on a macro level, this useful guide provides the details of hands-on CPS implementation by those who interact with these children every day. Readers will learn how to incorporate students' input in understanding the factors making it difficult for them to meet expectations and in generating mutually satisfactory solutions. Specific strategies, sample dialogues, and time-tested advice help educators implement these techniques immediately. The groundbreaking CPS approach has been a revelation for parents and educators of behaviorally-challenging children. This book gives educators the concrete guidance they need to immediately begin working more effectively with these students. Implement CPS one-on-one or with an entire class Work collaboratively with students to solve problems Study sample dialogues of CPS in action Change the way difficult students are treated The discipline systems used in K-12 schools are obsolete, and aren't working for the kids to whom they're most often applied – those with behavioral challenges. Lost and Found provides a roadmap to a different paradigm, helping educators radically transform the way they go about helping their most challenging students.

The Explosive Child

A New Approach for Understanding and Parenting Easily Frustrated, Chronically Inflexible Children

Ross W. Greene

Children who suffer intense temper outbursts, extreme noncompliance, and verbal and physical aggression are not seen as wilfully disobedient by Dr Greene. Rather, he provides a compassionate, practical approach for parents.

The Kids Who Aren't Okay

The Urgent Case for Reimagining Support, Belonging, and Hope in Schools

Ross W. Greene

From a New York Times bestselling authority on education and children’s mental health comes a groundbreaking guide to navigating classroom challenges through an approach that is aimed at meeting kids where they’re at and being responsive to the developmental variability inherent in every classroom. Over the past two decades, a wide array of societal changes have made it much harder to be a kid. While lots of kids are still doing okay, many more than ever are not. The Kids Who Aren’t Okay opens with sobering statistics on children’s mental health: higher than ever rates of concerning behaviors at school, anxiety, depression, chronic absenteeism, and suicidality. And educators—who have never felt less safe at school, have experienced significant decreases in job satisfaction, and have left the profession in droves—aren’t doing very well, either. Child psychologist Dr. Ross Greene, renowned for his pioneering work in education and originator of the evidence-based Collaborative & Proactive Solutions model (which has transformed practices in countless families, schools, psychiatric units, and residential and juvenile detention settings), has worked in and with schools across the globe for decades. He argues that the moment demands that we renew our focus on developmental variability and meeting every student where they’re at, and that we take a hard look at our structures, practices, and mentalities at school and make practical, actionable, realistic changes that benefit all kids and educators. These changes must include shifting to interventions that are proactive (early) rather than reactive (late), solutions that are collaborative rather than unilateral, and focused on the problems that are causing concerning behaviors (and solving them) rather than behaviors (and modifying them). Building on the principles introduced in his landmark, bestselling book, Lost at School, Greene equips educators and caregivers with the tools to foster safer, more supportive, inclusive learning environments. In easy-to-understand, practical terms, Greene provides a clear road map for turning things around, complete with vignettes, case studies, and the voices of educators who’ve done it. The Kids Who Aren’t Okay is a vital resource, providing hope and guidance as schools navigate the new normal.

The Explosive Child [Sixth Edition]

A New Approach for Understanding and Parenting Easily Frustrated, Chronically Inflexible Children

Ross W. Greene, PhD

Dr. Ross Greene provides a compassionate, practical approach to treating -explosive' children. Rather than viewing their behavior as willfully disobedient, he draws upon recent advances in the neurosciences and his extensive experience working with challenging children at Massachusetts General Hospital/Harvard Medical School in explaining that the difficulties of these children stem from brain-based deficits in two critical developmental skills: flexibility and frustration tolerance. These children may suffer from oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) and bipolar disorder. Often misdiagnosed under the broad umbrella of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder(ADHD), they are too readily treated with drugs that can exacerbate their behavior. In a departure from treatments relying on rewarding and punishing, Dr. Greene's approach helps us grasp the underlying problems of explosive children, defuse explosive episodes, and reduce tension and hostility levels for the entire family by providing valuable tools for coping.

Treating Explosive Kids

The Collaborative Problem-Solving Approach

Ross W. Greene, J. Stuart Ablon

The first comprehensive presentation for clinicians of the groundbreaking approach popularized in Ross Greene's acclaimed parenting guide, The Explosive Child, this book provides a detailed framework for effective, individualized intervention with highly oppositional children and their families. Many vivid examples and Q&A sections show how to identify the specific cognitive factors that contribute to explosive and noncompliant behavior, remediate these factors, and teach children and their adult caregivers how to solve problems collaboratively. The book also describes challenges that may arise in implementing the model and provides clear and practical solutions. Two special chapters focus on intervention in schools and in therapeutic/restrictive facilities.

The Explosive Child, Anak yang Meledak-ledak

Ross W. Greene, Ph.D

Kini dalam edisi ke-6 yang telah direvisi dan diperbarui, hadir pendekatan inovatif berbasis penelitian dari seorang dokter terkemuka yang pionir dalam bidangnya, untuk memahami dan mengasuh anak-anak yang sering kali menunjukkan sifat mudah marah dan perilaku menantang lainnya. Anak yang meledak-ledak merespons masalah rutin dengan rasa frustrasi yang ekstrem—menangis, menjerit, mengumpat, menendang, memukul, menggigit, meludah, merusak barang-barang, dan lainnya. Anak-anak ini sering mengalami ledakan emosi yang membuat orangtua merasa frustrasi, takut, khawatir, dan sangat membutuhkan bantuan. Sebagian besar orangtua ini telah mencoba semua hal—menalar, menjelaskan, menghukum, memberi ganjaran, terapi, pengobatan—tetapi tidak berhasil. Mereka tidak mengerti mengapa anak mereka bertindak seperti itu; mereka bertanya-tanya mengapa strategi yang berhasil untuk anak-anak lain tidak berhasil untuk anak-anak ini; dan mereka tidak tahu harus berbuat apa. Dr. Ross Greene, seorang dokter terkemuka dan pionir dalam pengobatan anak-anak dengan tantangan sosial, emosional, dan perilaku, telah bekerja dengan ribuan anak yang meledak-ledak, dan dia punya kabar baik: anak-anak ini tidak mencari perhatian, manipulatif, atau tidak termotivasi, dan orangtua mereka bukanlah orang yang pasif dan permisif. Sebaliknya, anak yang meledak-ledak ini ternyata kurang memiliki beberapa keterampilan penting dalam bidang fleksibilitas/kemampuan beradaptasi, toleransi terhadap rasa frustrasi, dan pemecahan masalah, dan mereka memerlukan pendekatan yang berbeda dalam pengasuhan anak. Melalui buku yang penuh wawasan dan praktis ini, Dr. Greene memberikan kerangka konseptual baru untuk memahami kesulitan mereka, berdasarkan penelitian di bidang ilmu saraf. Dia menjelaskan mengapa pola asuh dan pengobatan tradisional sering kali tidak berhasil pada anak-anak ini, dan dia menjelaskan apa yang harus dilakukan. Daripada mengandalkan ganjaran dan hukuman, model Pemecahan Masalah Kolaboratif Dr. Greene mempromosikan bekerja dengan anak-anak yang meledak-ledak untuk memecahkan masalah yang memicu episode ledakan, dan mengajari anak-anak ini keterampilan yang kurang mereka miliki.

El Niño Explosivo

Un nuevo modelo para comprender y criar al niño fácil de frustrar y crónicamente inflexible

Ross W. Greene

Los niños explosivos responden a los problemas comunes con una extrema frustración: lloran, gritan, maldicen, patean, golpean, muerden, escupen, destruyen propiedad, y peor. Sus padres han intentado varias estrategias—razonar, explicar, castigar, gráficos con calcomanías, terapia, medicamentos—pero aún no tienen mucho qué mostrar por sus esfuerzos y se sienten frustrados, asustados, preocupados, y desesperados por obtener ayuda verdaderamente efectiva. Dr. Ross Greene, un psicólogo clínico distinguido y fundador en el tratamiento de niños con desafíos sociales, emocionales, y de comportamiento, ha trabajado con miles de niños explosivos, y él les tiene buenas noticias: estos niños no quieren llamar la atención, ni son manipulativos, y sus padres no son unos disciplinarios pasivos o permisivos. Más bien, a los niños explosivos les hace falta algunas habilidades en las áreas de flexibilidad/adaptabilidad, tolerancia a la frustración, y resolución de problemas, y ellos requieren un estilo de crianza muy diferente. A través de este libro compasivo, detallado, y práctico, Dr. Greene ofrece un nuevo marco conceptual para entender las dificultades de ellos. Él explica por qué los estilos tradicionales sobre la crianza de los niños y los tratamientos que también se han utilizado tradicionalmente, por lo regular no funcionan con estos niños. Él también describe qué hacer en lugar de usar estos viejos métodos. En vez de confiar en sistemas de premios y castigos, el modelo de Resolución de Problemas en Colaboración creado por el Dr. Greene promueve el trabajar con niños explosivos para resolver los problemas que causan episodios explosivos, y enseñarles las habilidades que ellos no tienen.

Opdragelse uden skældud

Ross W. Greene

Vi ved det godt: Skældud virker ikke. Det skader forholdet mellem barn og forælder, og barnet lærer ikke det, det får brug for som voksen, år du som forælder tromler dine egen vilje igennem. Men, hvad gør man så, når man ikke vil falde i skældud-fælden? Det har Ross W. Greene fundet en metode til, som alle forældre kan lære, og i sin nyeste bog ’Opdragelse uden skældud’ beskriver han metoden. Børneopdragelse i gråzone-land Ifølge Ross W. Greene behøver forældreskabet ikke at være en konstant balancegang mellem konflikt og kapitulation. “Når det i dag handler om børneopdragelse, er mange forældre i tvivl om, hvordan de skal gribe det an. De befinder sig i et gråzone-land mellem eftergivenhed og autoritære principper. De ønsker, at deres barn skal være et selvstændigt individ, men ikke hvis det fører til, at det træffer uheldige valg. De vil helst undgå at fremstå som strenge og pedantiske forældre, men ikke hvis resultatet bliver et uforskammet og trodsigt barn," forklarer Ross W. Greene Løs problemer i fællesskab Heldigvis er der en gylden middelvej mellem det rene forældreherredømme og total eftergivenhed på barnets præmisser. Voksne skal vise respekt overfor børnene og samarbejde med dem om at finde holdbare løsninger. For børn vil gerne samarbejde, og børn gør det godt, hvis de kan, mener Ross W. Greene. Men ofte har de ikke evnerne eller erfaringerne, der skal til for at gøre det. "Målet er ikke at være perfekt som forælder, især fordi det er umuligt at leve op til. Du skal heller ikke kon-stant drage dine egne beslutninger i tvivl. Målet er at reflektere over hvilken rolle, du spiller i dit barns liv, hvordan du får indflydelse og fremmer de karaktertræk, du værdsætter mest," forklarer han. Forståelse og kommunikation Opdragelse uden skældud er en metode til at forstå og kommunikere med børn ved hjælp af samarbejde frem for skældud. Bogen er praktisk anlagt og indeholder en lang eksempler på, hvordan man bruger metoden i hverdagen, og en række dialoger fra situationer, alle forældre kan nikke genkendende til. Den henvender sig til alle børnefamilier, der ønsker færre konflikter i hverdagen.
