Every year, parents spend billions of dollars on child-rearing guidebooks, specialty magazines, and consultation with mental health professionals to address their children's disruptive behavior. Yet the commonplace solutions that are provided often fail to produce any long-term behavioral improvement for the most difficult children. In his new book, Don't Swear with Your Mouth Full!: When conventional discipline fails unconventional children, Dr. Chugh explains exactly where the field of Psychology got it wrong and offers simple-to-use, yet highly effective, strategies that parents, teachers, and therapists can use to eliminate even the toughest of behaviors kids throw their way.
Time-based discipline strategies, such as grounding for a week, sitting in time-out for 1 to 2 minutes for each year of life, taking a toy away for the day, detention after school, and sticker charts are technically flawed and do not work for the kids who need discipline the most. In fact, for certain kids, these strategies may actually promote worse behavior over time. Dr. Chugh offers a simple solution that is based on basic behavioral science. The defining feature of this book is the outline of a new approach for working with the most difficult of children referred to as behavior-limited discipline. The beauty of this approach is that it is the first known attempt to incorporate the core tenets of behaviorism with the biological needs or drives of temperamentally difficult children. The result is a fool-proof system that can be applied to children of all ages. In fact, the more stubborn and resistant the child is, the more effectively this program works!

Great Discipline Options,
By Winston (SF Bay Area, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Don't Swear with Your Mouth Full! When conventional discipline fails unconventional children (Paperback)
A very thoughtfull, logical book. I am sick of people telling me just to be firm and put my child in a time-out when they misbehave. For my children, that just does not work. Dr. Chugh explains why it does not work. Hallelujah! When I started using Dr. Chugh's techniques it was truly like magic. He explains why his techniques work and why others do not. It makes perfect sense. While the book is thin on providing an overall parenting style for your kids. His specific discipline techniques make the book well worth the price.

Great resource for parents with challenging/inflexible/controlling kids,
By
This review is from: Don't Swear with Your Mouth Full! When conventional discipline fails unconventional children (Paperback)
This book provides a wonderful overview of the various temperaments/personality traits that a child may display from birth, which have nothing to do with parenting style. This book refocuses parents' efforts into cultivating and "using" a child's challenging/controlling temperament rather than fighting it or attempting to change the child. Rather than battling with your child to sit in time out, Dr. Chugh provides concrete examples of an alternative approach which makes much more sense. This book is a quick and helpful resource for parents/teachers/etc looking for a more effective approach to disciplining children.

This book makes sense,
By Catherine P. Cook-cottone "Catherine Cook-Cot... (Buffalo, NY United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Don't Swear with Your Mouth Full! When conventional discipline fails unconventional children (Paperback)
This book explains the why and the how for parents and it does this in a friendly, fun way. Dr. Chugh has integrated his own likable personal style into to his understanding of child behavior. He then takes you, as the reader (and parent looking for guidance), through behavior strategies for your child. It is all done in a clear understandable manner that FITS with a firm, fair, and loving parenting style.
