Abstract

Appréhender et tempérer les troubles de l'adolescence. Tous les ados ne se ressemblent pas. Certains vivent cette période repliés dans leur chambre, d'autres ne cessent de sortir. Certains perdent tout intérêt pour les études, d'autres sont toujours premiers, certains ont le joint aux lèvres dès le lever, d'autres n'y toucheraient pour rien au monde et d'autres encore oscillent entre les deux extrêmes. Il reste que certains traits se dégagent et que tous vivent une période complexe. Crise ? Oui, en quelque sorte. L'adolescent traverse une crise, une transformation. L'adolescence inquiète parce que les risques sont effectivement là. Et pour traverser cette étape, Les ados ont besoin de leurs parents. A leurs côtés et non en face d'eux. Conçu comme les précédents - par tranche d'âge -, ce livre explore la psychologie des adolescents, ainsi que certaines composantes biologiques et physiologiques, et aide ainsi à poser un regard nouveau sur les motivations de leurs comportements.

Young Adults-At Risk Behaviour

Parenting

Addictive Behaviour

Abstract

Moment charnière entre L'enfance et l'âge adulte, l'adolescence est cette période de la vie où un jeune acquiert son indépendance. Cette quête d'autonomie, qui n'est pas un choix mais une nécessité, passe par des essais et des prises de risque. Les parents peuvent se sentir désarmés, avoir l'impression qu'ils ne sont plus écoutés, que leur adolescent échappe à tout contrôle. Pourtant, ils doivent l'accompagner au mieux pour lui permettre de vivre et de savourer les expériences de son âge, sans perte de chance pour son avenir. Essayer le cannabis ne conduit pas inéluctablement à la toxicomanie. En revanche, fumer pour gérer ses émotions constitue une consommation à risque. De même que jouer est indispensable à l'homme, trouver dans les jeux vidéo un moyen de fuir la réalité pose un vrai problème. Enfin, la fête et l'alcool font très bon ménage, sauf lorsqu'ils transforment la prise de risque en une réelle mise en danger.Quand un adolescent a une conduite problématique, lui faire entendre raison n'est pas chose facile. Son cerveau, encore en développement, privilégie l'émotionnel au rationnel. Face à cette réalité, ce sont des liens de confiance, solides et stables, qui vont permettre aux parents d'accompagner leur enfant. Faire confiance à son adolescent et à ses compétences de parents est un élément clé pour l'épanouissement de tous.Dans cet ouvrage, des spécialistes proposent un autre regard sur l'adolescence et préconisent des attitudes parentales issues de leur pratique clinique auprès de familles d'adolescents.

Abstract

The first parenting book to bring the science and psychology of children's behavior together to build brain/body awareness for self-regulation and success Self-Reg is a ground-breaking book that presents an entirely new understanding of your child's emotions and behavior that serves as a practical guide for parents to help their kids engage calmly and successfully in learning and life. Rooted in decades of clinical practice and research by leading child psychologist Dr. Stuart Shanker, Self-Reg realigns the power of the parent-child relationship for positive change. Self-regulation is the nervous system's way of responding to stress. We are seeing a generation of children and teens with excessively high levels of stress and, as a result, an explosion of emotional, social, learning, behavior, and physical health problems. But few parents recognize the "hidden stressors" that their children are struggling with: physiological as well as social and emotional. An entrenched view of child rearing is seeing our children as lacking self-control or will-power, but the real basis for these problems lies in excessive stress. Self-regulation can dramatically improve a child's mood, attention, and concentration. It can help children to feel empathy and to develop the sorts of virtues that every parent knows are vital for their child's long-term well-being. Self-regulation brings about profound and lasting transformation that continues to mature throughout life. Shanker translates decades of his findings from working with children into practical, prescriptive advice for parents, giving them concrete ways to develop their self-regulation skills and teach their children how to do the same for optimal learning, social, and emotional growth as well as for overall well-being.

Parenting Toddlers

Abstract

Caring for young children is one of the most challenging tasks an adult will ever face. No matter how much you love your child, there will be moments filled with frustration, anger, and even desperation. There will also be questions: Why does my four-year-old deliberately lie to me? Why is everything a struggle with my three-year-old? Should I ever spank my preschooler when she is disobedient? Over the years, millions of parents have come to trust the Positive Discipline series and its common-sense approach to child-rearing.

This revised and updated fourth edition includes a new chapter on the importance of play and outdoor experiences on child development, along with new information on school readiness, childhood brain growth, and social/emotional learning. You'll also find practical solutions for how to:

- Teach appropriate social skills at an early age

- Avoid the power struggles that often come with mastering sleeping, eating, and potty training

- See misbehavior as an opportunity to teach nonpunitive discipline--not punishment

Abstract

Andrew Solomon tells the stories of parents who not only learn to deal with their exceptional children but also find profound meaning in doing so. He writes about families coping with deafness, dwarfism, Down syndrome, autism, schizophrenia, multiple severe disabilities, with children who are prodigies, who are conceived in rape, who become criminals, who are transgender. While each of these characteristics is potentially isolating, the experience of difference within families is universal, as are the triumphs of love Solomon documents in every chapter.

Devant la demande pressante des parents et des enseignants, Eline Snel a décidé d?adapter son programme aux adolescents.
