Understanding Children’s Behavior Problems
Unexpected behavior with children can be frustrating without any understanding of the ways to handle their misconduct. It doesn’t have to be bad or rebellious behaviors, but on how kids react differently from our expectations and what we have prepared for them.
In this episode of Raising Parents: Parenting Science Insights Podcast, host Dina Sargeant is joined by Danielle Dick, a tenured Professor of Psychiatry at Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, and an internationally recognized and award-winning expert on genetic and environmental influence on human behavior.
The episode started with fun-scientific-based facts on how genes and environments play a big role in children’s development. Danielle explained how genes take part in an important role in the way brains are wired, and how it affects us differently when we react to environments. She also shared the best practices to improve children’s behavior problems and challenges as we implement them.
