Discipline, Attachment and the Adopted Child
Traditional discipline methods can be ineffective and even potentially damaging for adopted children - children who have experienced loss. Discipline needs to correct behavior while focusing on keeping a strong connection with your child.
Join Dafna Lender, LCSW, Clinical Director of The Theraplay Institute as she helps adoptive parents:
- Understand common challenging behaviors adopted children may exhibit at each developmental stage
- Discipline in a way that fosters learning rather than making your child feel ashamed and vengeful
- Move away from constant rewards and threats of punishment
- Help your child feel more comfortable accepting your guidance and leadership
- Integrate reciprocal play to enhance your child's self-esteem and sense of well being to help decrease negative behavior
