Description:

This is a valuable guide to behavior management for teachers, parents, and other caregivers. The authors advocate using "developmental discipline" to individualize discipline practices for children--from birth through elementary school. The authors also examine the effectiveness of frequently used discipline methods, such as time-outs and coreced apologies.
