Raising a bossy child

This book is a response to the growing number of children who display bossy behaviour, describing the main characteristics of these children and the factors that contribute to this trait developing.
In addition to describing the typical signs and causes of bossiness, the book also explores the importance of communication strategies at home and at school. It offers techniques aimed at reducing bossy behaviour as part of healthy personality development – for example, techniques that support the development of healthy self-reflection, understanding emotions, and gaining specific emotional experiences. The authors also pay attention to situations where bossiness is part of a child's specific diagnosis, which is the primary influencing factor.
Understanding the causes of a particular child's bossiness will help readers to provide targeted support, whether as parents, grandparents, teachers or other adults with whom the child comes into contact. The book encourages readers to find ways to help children assert themselves in a healthy way and to apply their skills, abilities and talents while respecting the important rules of living together.
