"You're Not My Friend Anymore!" provides a close-up look at children's challenging behaviors and effective adult responses to conflict situations. In a series of 21 scenarios based on actual teacher and parent interactions with young children, readers will find illustrated answers to common questions about responding to children's conflicts. Each chapter of "You're Not My Friend Anymore!" explores a typical What if...? Question about children's challenging behaviors. This question is answered by two sets of illustrated responses: one depicts a "typical" (or more traditional) adult response to the problem or conflict situation; the other details a "problem-solving" approach based on a six-step mediation process. Accompanying text explores the differences between the two approaches, common questions about children's behaviors and responses, and recommended strategies for effective problem solving.
