What can I do to help my child with anger management?
      

The most significant way children learn is to model after the most important adults in their lives, their parents. Children learn primarily by what they see you do, not so much by what you tell them to do. Parents who yell or get physical when they are angry are likely to have children who do the same. Conversely, parents who model healthy anger management techniques are likely to have children with fewer anger management problems.

Take a look at our book list, there are books for adults to help you manage your anger and there are books to help you teach your children to manage their anger. If you have anger management problems start there first, then model your newly learned skills to your children and teach them what you have learned. If you don't have anger management problems purchase a book that offers you techniques to help your child. There are many techniques to choose from. Examples include behavioral techniques (i.e. "time out"), cognitive techniques (i.e. "positive thinking"), and experiential techniques (i.e. relaxation and guided imagery).
