The Challenge of Behaviour - the Real Way

A Bespoke Behavioural Approach to Tackling Defiant and Challenging Behaviour in Children Aged 3-12 Years Parent Version

The REAL Way is a simple and effective tool that contains the key ingredients to help modify challenging behaviour, reassert parental control and re-establish boundaries that may have become blurred over time so that ultimately, parents can enjoy their children and their childrens company once again. If used consistently, then results can be seen in as little as 2-6 weeks. This book primarily focuses on parents. However, the underlying principles of The REAL Way are the same for teachers and professionals working with young people. The REAL Way has been successfully used in schools and homes to tackle even the most challenging of behaviours and has successfully reduced the risk of exclusion from school for many cases.
