About this listen
Is your child often defiant, argumentative, and prone to angry outbursts?
Do you find yourself feeling helpless and frustrated in your attempts to manage their behavior?
If so, you're not alone.
Parenting can often feel like an uphill battle, especially as the child grows older.
In this practical guide to managing Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD), author Mia Collins provides parents with the tools and strategies they need to understand their child's challenging behavior and reclaim control over family life.
Drawing on the latest research in psychology and child development, this book offers a comprehensive yet accessible approach to managing ODD that emphasizes the importance of positive reinforcement, clear communication, and consistent discipline.
With a focus on empowering parents to connect with their child and promote positive behaviors, this book includes concrete tips and techniques for managing explosive situations, building emotional resilience, and fostering healthy family relationships.
With the goal of putting parents back in the driver's seat, it also emphasizes the importance of self-care, recognizing that taking care of oneself is an essential part of being a supportive parent.
Whether you're a parent, caregiver, or educator, this book is an essential resource for anyone looking to better understand and manage oppositional defiant behavior.

Story
One day, I was at a restaurant with my wife, and as we were finishing up our meal, our server handed us a survey form. Realizing neither of us had a pen, my wife told me to ask the server if we could borrow one to fill out the form. Instead of doing this, I walked to the parking lot, retrieved a pen from our car, and walked back to our table. It would’ve been easier to just borrow a pen, but I opted for the route that involved less social interaction. I did this automatically, without even thinking.

Narcissists are seemingly irresistibly charming people. They fill you with love and attention until you fall in love, and then they trap you in their darkness.

This book warns against narcissists by teaching you to recognize them, recognize their subtle tricks, and showing you how to break this vicious circle. Your boundaries are not negotiable. This is the right book that can help you take back your life.

A lot of this book will resonate with parents
A lot of this book will resonate with parents who want to practice gentle parenting but are afraid they cannot with their child's condition. This book gives you the tools to be the parent you were hoping to be. Mia Collins' approach is positive and encouraging, and her tips and tricks have been incredibly helpful in managing my child's behavior. ODD is out of the control of the child for the most part, so it is the parent that needs to adapt and meet their child where they are. The message of the book is hopeful, which is always nice to walk away from a book with.
