Typically such children exhibit antisocial behavior -- lying, cheating, stealing, firesetting, fighting, oppositional behavior and noncompliance to parental requests -- at abnormal rates. \u003ci\u003eTroubled Families -- Problem Children\u003c\/i\u003e helps the mental-health clinician understand the most effective therapeutic processes for supporting families who have children with conduct disorders. Help for these families is particularly urgent as the children are not only at increased risk of abuse by their parents but are more likely to be involved in school dropout, alcoholism, drug abuse, juvenile delinquency, etc., and also to suffer from poor physical health.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFrom the Foreword by Thomas Ollendick What sets this book apart from others of its genre is its careful attention to, and elucidation of, the 'collaborative process' in working with these oppositional, defiant, and conduct-disordered children and their families. Webster-Stratton and Herbert do not just talk about troubled families and problem children; rather, they bring them to us in rich and graphic detail. \u003ci\u003eTroubled Families -- Problem Children\u003c\/i\u003e is an outstanding and scholarly contribution to the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Carolyn Webster-Stratton, Martin Herbert\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wiley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/20\/1994\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.05w x 0.91d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780471944485\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCarolyn Webster-Stratton\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eTroubled Families-Problem Children: Working with Parents: A Collaborative Process\u003c\/i\u003e, published by Wiley.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMartin Herbert\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor Emeritus at Exeter University.
