How To Manage Bad Behavior In The Workplace

New clothes and notebooks and talk about favorite friends and tough teachers have made their way into American homes amid the exuberance and anxiety of a new school year. But for the millions of parents whose children struggle with attention deficity hyperactivity disorder, the back-to-school swirl of activity is tinged with another worry: whether behavioral challenges will stand in the way of their child's ability to learn and succeed.

There are also concerns that there may be a risk of suicidal thinking in children, adolescents, and young adults using nonstimulants like atomoxetine or antidepressants for ADHD. In fact, a boxed warning exists for this issue. It is important to monitor your child for changes in mood or signs of depression or suicide, and discuss these issues with your doctor.

Behavioral therapy, also known as behavior management, is shown to have positive results on ADHD children. The goal of behavior therapy in ADHD children is to increase the desired behaviors. This is typically achieved through using positive reinforcements when the child acts appropriately. The first step of therapy is typically to improve the relationship between the child and the parents. This is coupled with providing negative consequences and positive reinforcements to help the child increase his or her interest in pleasing the parents.
