My Child Is Angry...and So Am I: Guiding Youth in Expressing Anger Constructively

By Dr David R Leaman and Dr. David R. Leaman

What makes you angry? Do you recognize the roots and triggers of your anger? How do you act when you're angry? You can learn to express anger effectively and even use it to build positive relationships. In "My Child Is Angry...And So Am I," psychologist David R. Leaman first guides adults through personal reflection activities to help them recognize their own unresolved conflicts before addressing the anger issues their children are experiencing. He then offers simple, kid-friendly exercises-specific to common, everyday problems-that parents, teachers, and therapists can use to help children understand how to express anger in healthy, positive ways. Additionally, the final chapter, written specifically for mental health professionals and educators, offers therapeutic procedures and techniques for conducting anger management groups. Grounded in cognitive-behavior psychology and enhanced with spiritual wisdom, this easy-to-use book illustrates practical ways to channel anger into constructive action no matter what challenges you or your child face.
