Attitude Adjustment Needed Now (Workbook)

Having worked with hundreds of children experiencing problems with anger, Dr. David E. Miller has created a simple two-part workbook designed for these children and their parents. The workbook promotes several activities to help children learn ten coping skills for expressing anger appropriately and reducing impulsive outbursts or inappropriate expressions of anger. The coping skills are presented as “tricks” that can help a child learn to control his or her anger. By working through the children’s portion of the workbook, a child learns coping skills for better handling anger and begins to consider consequences for his or her decisions and behavior. The parent’s section of the workbook contains many suggestions and resource ideas for helping their children learn coping skills, resulting in better anger management. Since these concepts have application to the classroom as well as the home environment, the workbook can serve as a resource to parents, teachers, and other personnel working with children in educational settings.
