A practical, realistic and easytounderstand resource to help parents deal with outofcontrol adolescents frustrating behaviors behaviors that can leave even the most experienced parents whipped. It is written in everyday language, with humor and hope. Provides answers to help parents meet the challenge of raising an outofcontrol teen. From the book Outofcontrol teens include those who are described by mental health professionals as being oppositionaldefiant and conduct disordered. Oppositionaldefiant kids are negative, defiant, disobedient and hostile toward authority figures. They lose their tempers, argue and refuse to comply with the requests of parents, teachers, therapists, even the local librarian. Any adult who tries to set a limit is fair game. This type of adolescent is often angry, resentful, spiteful and vindictive. They deliberately annoy people and blame others for their poor choices and negative behavior. Conduct disordered kids are all of the above and then some. They engage in severely dangerous and illegal behaviors. They are often the school bullies, threatening peers and adults. They fight, carry weapons and do drugs. They lie, steal, set fires and deliberately destroy other peoples property. They are often truant from school, stay out past curfew and run away from home, despite their parents efforts to stop them. These teens consistently and seriously violate the rules and laws of society. The Whipped Parent can help parents of oppositionaldefiant and conduct disordered adolescents find ways to stay centered while dealing correctly with school and court authorities. The authors do not believe in using boot camps as a tool to control bad behavior. Includes appendixes, worksheets for parents, suggested reading and an index.
