Effectively Managing a Child's Behavior Child Behavior Home CHILD BEHAVIOR MANAGEMENT If there were a genuine shortcut to raising children, kids would be ready to go off on their own by age two. If this concept appeals to you, I recommend that you change species, for a two year old cat, doc or cow is fully adult. Whales, elephants, and, er, humans seem to take a rather long time to mature. Given that your offspring are not REALLY the animals they sometimes appear to be, and that they are therefore going to be hanging about for some time, here are some techniques that may prove useful in the everyday trenches of childrearing. We will start with the emergency procedure first. Technique The First: NIACIN This is not in any of the how-to-raise-kids books that I’ve ever seen, but it’s extremely important. Give niacin (vitamin B-3) to fussy children, and fussy teenagers. How much? Just enough to barely “flush” them. The full technique is described in detail elsewhere on this website ( http://www.doctoryourself.com/hoffer_niacin.html and http://doctoryourself.com/niacin.html ), but the crux of it is that the inevitable “hot flash” experience indicates saturation of niacin. When a child is at niacin saturation, they are biochemically mellowed out inside. Niacin is the preeminent natural, safe, cheap, all-purpose anti-depressant/anti-anxiety/anti-psychotic vitamin.

Easy-to-use tools for Child Behavior and Child Behavior Modification We provide child behavior management products with discipline techniques for children in the home or classroom, plus help with Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD). In most families, child behavior is not an issue until serious behavior problems emerge. Most kids grow out of what we call the "terrible twos" and display age-appropriate behavior. Once outside the home environment, undesirable behavior becomes a problem, not only for the parents and family, but also for peers, teachers and other authority figures. This can lead to embarrassment for the family, poor academic standing, other learning problems, loneliness and low self-esteem for the child. It is important to recognize behavior problems early and take appropriate action to remedy them. Therefore, how a family recognizes and deals with these behaviors is key. Children should always be checked by their pediatricians to rule out any physical problems that may contribute to a behavioral problem. Serious, persistent or aberrant child behavior needs to be assessed by a child development specialist or child psychologist or psychiatrist. However, parents can play an important part to ensure that poor child behavior (which does not have a physical or deep psychological root) is replaced by appropriate behavior. There are many ways to teach appropriate behavior to young or school-aged children.

Cartwright, Ph.D. reprimands" a child for inappropriate behavior, the attention the child receives may for appropriate behavior than for inappropriate behavior. Rewarding Behavior with Behavior http://www.shpm.com/articles/child_behavior/behavman3.html

Seeking the assistance of a therapist can be a difficult process ... EFFECTIVE BEHAVIOR MANAGEMENT PART III: CONSEQUENCES OF CHILDREN'S BEHAVIOR - REINFORCEMENT Kelly B. Cartwright, Ph.D. The first two articles in this series focused on ways of interacting and communicating with children that promote effective behavior management. Another area essential to this process involves consequences for children's behavior: reinforcement and punishment. Here, we need to talk about some basic psychological principles of learning. Consequences Behaviors are strengthened or diminished by consequences. For example, when a child cries for a toy or candy at the market and an adult purchases the desired product, the child experiences a pleasant consequence, a reward. As a result, he or she is MORE likely to cry for toys or candy when visiting the market in the future. Children learn associations between behaviors and consequences, and the types of consequences experienced by children affect their behavior directly. When attempting to manage children's behavior, careful attention must be paid to specific behaviors in children as well as to the consequences that follow the behaviors. There are generally two types of consequences: reinforcement and punishment. Importance of Reinforcement Generally, when adults think of consequences for children's behavior, we think of unpleasant things like spanking or restricting privileges. Research demonstrates, however, that reinforcement, or pleasant consequences, may actually be a more powerful motivator for children. The following sections suggest some ways to utilize consequences in managing children's behavior.

15. Discipline Child Behavior Without Realizing It Discipline child behavior without it seeming like a disipline. Follow these realizing it. Discipline child behavior without realizing it. http://gaga.essortment.com/behaviorchildre_rfaz.htm

Discipline child behavior without realizing it Discipline child behavior without it seeming like a disipline. Follow these easy steps to discipline your child without really realizing it. Discipline and corporal punishment are two different concepts often mistaken as one. A well-disciplined child is one who knows that he is safe and secure within his family because he is loved and forms part of the giving and taking process. He realizes that love means giving and receiving and doing his part of the family chores to keep the household going. Daily family responsibilities and routines help form him into a well-functioning future citizen. Praise for what he has done correctly and not criticism for his failures energizes him into striving to be the best he can be. Here are some ideas to help discipline your child without knowing it. bodyOffer(27985) 1- Have definite family routines like a certain time for meals and bedtime. This helps them form routines and stay organized and keeps them out of trouble because they know when activities in your house take place and it makes life much easier for everybody. 2- Children need free time as well, a time to play with friends or do after school activities to learn skills and to let out frustrations. They should know exactly when their free time is so they can make plans with their friends. But, they have to know just like adults that you do your work first, then you have your fun. Remember you are raising them for the real world to become good citizens, husbands, wives and workers

Seeking the assistance of a therapist can be a difficult process ... ADHD IN THE CLASSROOM, PART 1: STRATEGIES FOR BEHAVIOR MANAGEMENT by Richard R. Matte and Jon A. Bolaski Successful academic achievement requires the ability to concentrate, and students who have problems with this are at a significant academic disadvantage. In fact, students who are unable to pay attention to one task are likely to avoid or develop a strong aversion to tasks that demand prolonged concentration. Consequently, academic performance and academic success for these students can be inconsistent and infrequent. These difficulties are inherent components of a disorder known as Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The primary symptoms of ADHD include persistent patterns of inattention, impulsivity and/or hyperactivity when compared to others of similar age and developmental levels. According to the DSM-IV (1994), this pattern must adversely affect at least two settings, such as school, home, and/or work, and must have been present before the age of seven. An ADHD diagnosis can occur well after age seven, however, symptoms must have been present before this age. According to Kirby and Kirby (1994), ADHD has been the most common diagnosis for school age children for many years, with prevalence estimates ranging from 2% to 6%.

Understanding Child Behaviour , child behavior Understanding Child Behavior, problems and Ways To Give Your Child Trust In order to understand why your child is misbehaving it is helpful to keep a diary: Identify one behaviour that you would like to change in your child. Be as specific as you can e.g. wont do as she / he is told, hitting, demands things, whines, shouts. Write this behaviour down. When the behaviour occurs, write down what caused it (triggers) and what happened afterwards (the result). After a week try to see if there is any pattern to the behaviour. When is it occurring ( particular time, situations)? Who is it occurring with? What are the reasons ? What are the consequences ? Ask yourself what is my child learning from the way I respond to this behaviour? Am I setting limits and boundaries consistently ? Once you have a clear picture you are ready to change the pattern by changing the triggers and consequences after observing this behaviour pattern. You may have to try and ignore certain behaviour, try not to give in, remove certain privileges, look and sound as if you mean it when asking you child to do something. Most importantly concentrate on encouraging and rewarding good behaviour all the time ! How To Cope Positively With Difficult Child Behaviour.

Normal behavior in children depends on the child's age, personality, and physical and emotional development. A child's behavior may be a problem if it doesn't match the expectations of the family or if it is disruptive.
