Sinopsis

Bestselling guide for foster carers and kinship carers

Would you like to develop a better relationship with the child you are caring for? Do you sometimes struggle to deal with your child’s painful feelings, challenging behaviour, or even aggression? Does your child sometimes wind you up to get your attention? If you answer yes to any of these questions, this book is for you.

Looking after children in foster care or kinship care is a challenging and important role. It changes children’s lives, but it can make many and varied demands on carers. Some of the challenges arise from children’s behaviours that can be challenging and puzzling to deal with.

This unique handbook provides carers with new skills to help manage a child’s behaviour and improve their relationship. The practical guide is full of useful tips, case examples and exercises, and addresses key areas including: being good at giving praise; listening to and talking with your child; using play to give positive attention; using rewards and setting limits; being good at giving instructions; using ignoring to improve behaviour; helping children learn from the consequences of their actions; and helping carers to care for themselves.

The guide does not provide all the answers, as every child is an individual and may be affected in different ways by early trauma and neglect. It can be hard to understand and help children when they express their frustration, anger, stress and insecurity. But the guide does set out clear and practical ways in which carers can help children.

Managing Difficult Behaviour is based on the widely used Fostering Changes Programme, from the Maudsley Hospital in London. Tried and tested by carers, this guide provides practical advice and skills-based training to develop carers’ skills in managing challenging child behaviour and forming positive relationships with the children they look after.
