Raising a Child with Oppositional Defiant Disorder

How to Overcome Your Child’s Uncooperative and Hostile Behavior

By: Rosa Newman

Narrated by: Lauren Stafford

Oppositional Defiant Disorder has a familial association, and many factors can lead to this condition. However, parents should not be blamed for their oppositional children. The treatment involves carefully considering the familial structure, behavioral changes of the ODD children, and designing customized strategies that work well with the child’s irritable mood.

This audiobook consists of the information that can help handle an ODD child's oppositional and defiant behavior. The change starts with family. Parents should re-assess their relationship with children. Sometimes, parental abuse can go unchecked, worsening the condition. Moreover, anger is not the only solution, and sometimes smarter strategies are needed.

The initial sections are focused on changing the familial structure and parent-child relationship. Then comes a discussion regarding improving the bond between parents and their ODD children. The later sections focus on scientifically-proven strategies to change oppositional behavior in children.

Oppositional Defiant Disorder makes it hard for children to learn from experiences. So, parents shouldn’t expect them to understand a point without repeating their mistakes. The process demands patience, careful planning, and dedication. This is where you will find this audiobook extremely helpful.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Nice Strategies

This book has some fantastic strategies of dealing with defiant children of any nature. One of them that stood out for me personally was using timeouts with mischievous behaviors. After a while the child will start to accept it and in return it will lead to less tantrums and disruptive behavior.

Author explains science behind the child’s actions

The book uses case studies and examples to engage the reader and explain certain principles. The book also gave me a better idea of how ODD children think and why they react to certain scenarios in the way that they do.

Book can get a bit technical but still good!

if you are a technical person, I think this book is perfect for you as I think it was a bit too clinical for myself. nevertheless, I still hugely benefited and I actually look forward to implementing some of these strategies!

Great balance!

There is a great mix between advice for parents and education on ODD children. I have learned a lot that I was not previously aware of. Especially in regards to dealing with children who deny everything.

Very professional book!

As a parent of a defiant child. I found the advises and strategies in this book to be realistic and well thought out. everything is based on evidence and the author uses great sources!

Great initiative advice!

I really liked this book! in particular some of the strategies that were mentioned in regards to operating in public and remembering your child the rules of the public place you are going to. Never heard of these before!

Overall good

Good book, but i found the recommendations to overcome obstacles a little basic (seemed mostly geared toward older children) and the reader slightly monotoned.

Plagiarism

As I was listening to this, I noticed I knew all of these stories. I went back to the audiobook, the defiant child, and it is word for word, the same book.
