I like how it points out that it isn't just a problem in the now, that the child will continue to have problems later on in life. The author is very direct and explanative. I would like to find a way to print this out and give it to the mother of one of my dcbs. He just turned 8 and has anger issues. He is on meds and they do make a difference, but she needs to understand that he is still controlling her, and she needs to learn to take control back. I just don't know how to approach this with her. She knows her kid is out of control with her - he's just fine without her around... Or maybe I should say her kid is in control.
