Children and young adults are often viewed as being ‘difficult’ – and also violent. Both teachers and parents are pushed to their limits and feel uncertain about how to respond nonviolently. This book explains new strategies for action and innovative practical models for preventing violence, instead of applying punishments and humiliation, and shows how early and targeted action can promote social competences and prevention of violence through respect, esteem and transparent firmness. This approach allows new and successfully tested action skills to be acquired. The concepts involved are explained and supplemented with practical examples, exercises and working materials.
