Discipline problems result in lost instructional time in classrooms each day. School administration and educators alike are struggling to improve academic standards and learn more effective ways to deal with the oppositional behaviors of regular educational children and children with special needs. Learn strategies to prevent and/or reduce arguing and the power struggles and how to set behavioral limits with strong-willed youth while meeting their development needs. Our discussion will have a strong-developmental focus to address the needs that today's children bring to school. We will discuss why children need to be held accountable for their misbehavior and poor social skills. Participants will be offered methods regarding the 'science of control'. This research-based course will provide information for helping this population of children to grow up and become respectful, responsible and resourceful adults.
