The Explosive Child : A New Approach for Understanding and Parenting Easily Frustrated, Chronically Inflexible Children
Ross Greene (2021)
Dr. Ross Greene's book addresses the challenges of raising "explosive children"—those who react to everyday problems with intense emotional outbursts. He explains that these children aren’t defiant or manipulative, but lack essential skills like flexibility, frustration tolerance, and problem-solving. Instead of traditional discipline, Greene promotes a Collaborative Problem Solving approach that helps children build these skills and reduces conflict through empathy and cooperation.
