Break complex behaviors into easy-to-manage parts! Using the Miskidding process, Dr. Davick gives you the roadmap you need to decide when to do something, how soon to do it, what conditions might need professional diagnosis and which behavior you would prefer and how to get your kid to do it. This book is not a theoretical treatise. Rather, it is the culmination of decades of experience by a physician who has dedicated his professional life to restoring kids' mental health and inducing them to make better behavior choices. Alan M. Davick, M.D., a Johns Hopkins trained Behavioral-Developmental Pediatrician, presents in this book 5 simple but powerful steps he uses in daily practice to recognize, prioritize, sort, redirect and manage behavior problems in kids. *****
This book is a great resource for parents who are being introduced into the world of children with behavioral problems. For parents this situation can be terrifying. Dr. Davick does an excellent job in his book helping parents to learn to understand the importance of recognizing and dealing with these children's issues without increasing their fear and anger. This book also helps parents identify dangerous behavior that cannot be ignored, which he calls KILLER KIDDING, without causing a panic response which can alienate a child and lead to further problems. Overall this book was a pleasure to read with an organized flow. He creates simplicity for issues that in most situations appear to be an insurmountable obstacle. Laura Youngfleisch, Masters of Arts (MA), Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) Dr. Davick, drawing on over 40 years' experience, has produced a tool that helps parents recognize, analyze, and modify unwanted behaviors from the cradle to the day an adolescent leaves home. With thoughtfulness and expertise, he has devised a method to distinguish healthy exploration and experimentation from behaviors that lead to unwanted consequences. And, with many practical illustrations, he suggests the most useful behavior modification methods that emphasize the consequences of children's actions when necessary (as well as assessing when intervention is unnecessary). Miskidding is not a reference book to gather dust on the shelf; it's a readable book that everyone supervising children will enjoy for its useful tips and easy to understand system: an extraordinary addition to the arsenal of tools available for all who care for and about kids. Bennett E. Werner, M.D., Fellow of the American College of Physicians
