Hostile, destructive kids become hostile destructive adults and create
serious problems for society. Handling Children's Aggression
Constructively: Toward Taming Human Destructiveness shows how to prevent
the development of disturbed aggressive behaviors in children, giving
caregivers and educators the tools they need to handle problems in the
making so they won't become more difficult and costly problems to deal
with later on. Unlike the fine books previously published on how to
handle children who already suffer from significant aggressive behavior
disorders, this book takes a preventive approach. It focuses on how the
ways in which young children are raised contribute toward aggressive
behaviors and recommends techniques to manage children's aggression
constructively that can be applied from birth through adolescence.
