About this listen

Is your child extremely irritable most of the time? Do they have difficulty interpreting social cues? Are they impulsive and prone to outbursts or explosive rages? Parenting a child who has emotional dysregulation can be a bumpy ride. You've probably received advice - some of it unsolicited - from friends, teachers, and family members. But strategies and techniques that work for other kids are usually ineffective when it comes to your unique child, and can even lead to more stress for everyone in your family. The Uncontrollable Child is here to help.

Written for parents of children with emotion dysregulation disorders, including disruptive mood dysregulation disorder (DMDD), The Uncontrollable Child is a lifeline. It contains a powerful set of skills based in dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)-including mindfulness, validation, limit-setting, and behavior-shaping to help you better understand your child and their behavior, and successfully find balance between acceptance and change, flexibility and consistency, and limits and love.

As a parent, you want the very best for your child, but if you have a child with explosive emotions, you need extra help. Let this book guide you toward creating a nurturing, healthy, and loving environment in which your whole family can thrive.

Very useful and practical.

I don’t know why somebody said it is repetitive. On the contrary, he first presents the tools, then explains them, and give examples how to implement them. Finally he presents roadblocks to their proper implementation and how they may or may not work in specific situations. Narrator is appropriate and did a great job. This is a must read if you have a disruptive child. Discuss it with your therapist to get the most of it.

Extremely disappointing. Terribly redundant and repetitive.

I was so disappointed to have finished this book having learned absolutely nothing new. This book is chock full of trite, “Good-Housekeeping-esque” advice that we’ve all read a zillion times. Total waste of time IF you are a parent who actively reads relevant data.
