Book description

This book begins with an examination of Gandhi's 'nonviolent' resistance and its application to the family context. A model of escalation processes between parents and children is presented, as well as ways for overcoming escalation. The book includes a step-by-step instruction manual for parents. Special topics include: dealing with violence against siblings; dealing with children who take control of the house; building alliances between parents and teachers, and community uses of the approach.

Reviews

"[O]ffers...a possible breakthrough solution [to] the problem of violence." Martha M. Boshart, Teachers College Record

"Richly illustrated by numerous clinical examples and anecdotes....Omer's masterful description of the approach and of the numerous cases to which it was applied make the nonviolent resistance techniques appear accessible and compelling." Contemporary Psychology
