This book is complete with scales to evaluate your child's social behavior and practical activities to help you behave appropriately in social situations. Guided by current research and the vast clinical experience of the authors, this workbook helps parents, educators, and health-care workers understand which critical social skills determine future success and how to incorporate the teaching of those skills into everyday life.

Reviews

"In recent years a number of self-help books have been published to help parents improve their childs social skills. Hagar, Goldstein, and Brooks' book is far superior to them all. Always mindful of fostering a resilient mindset, the authors empathically guide parents to understand the reasons for their children's social interaction problems and skillfully provide parents with practical checklists and evaluation tools to pinpoint and target their child's social problems."
-ARTHUR L. ROBIN, PH.D., Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Neurosciences Wayne State University, Detriot, MI

"This is an excellent resource for parents, educators, and mental health professionals seeking practical, evidence-based strategies to address children's social relationship difficulties. The authors provide a plethora of realistic suggestions that are based on wisdom garnered from a wonderful blend of empirical data and clinical experience. This is one of the best books available to address the needs of children with social skills difficulties. I will certainly reccommend this text to my colleagues and to families with whom I am working."
GEORGE DUPAUL, PH.D., co-author of ADHD in the Schools
