Book Description
Parental Patrol Identifying and Correcting Adolescent Behavior Before It Occurs By: Anthony P. Montanari This is a book that is long overdue. In the juvenile justice system, we’ve developed systems of adjudication and rehabilitation; in clinical psychology, we focus on treatment protocols and healing strategies. Nevertheless, both structures have run on parallel tracks, seldom intersecting despite their common mission of helping juveniles transition into successful, responsible, joyful adults. Until now. In Parental Patrol, Detective Montanari provides a framework for understanding and avoiding, the damaging developmental path that often leads young people to behaviors that result their involvement in both the juvenile justice and mental health systems. For the concerned parent, that path is described—with the insight and proficiency of an experienced police officer and the sensitivity and compassion of an effective therapist—through twenty aspects of learning that must be mastered if positive, problem-free emotional growth and development are to occur. The usefulness of Montanari’s work goes well beyond being a guidebook for parents. It would also be relevant and appropriate as a training tool for police and therapists seeking to bridge the gap between their professions, providing context and common ground to inform the important work that they do. -Nicholas A. Duva, Ph.D.

The Psychology of Parental Control
Author: Wendy S. Grolnick
Publisher: Psychology Press
ISBN: 1135659834
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 209
Book Description
What is parental control? Is it positive or negative for children? What makes parents controlling with their children, even when they value supporting children's autonomy? Are there alternatives to control and how might we apply them in important domains of children's lives, such as school and sports? This book addresses these and other questions about the meaning and predictors of parental control, as well as its consequences for children's adjustment and well-being. While the topic of parental control is not new, there has been controversy about the concept, with some researchers and clinicians weighing in on the side of control and others against it. This book argues that part of the controversy stems from different uses of the term, with some investigators focusing more on parents being in control and others on controlling children. Using a definition of control as "pressure for children to think, feel, or behave in specific ways," the author explores research on parental control, arguing that there is more consensus than previously thought. Using this research base, the author provides evidence that parental control can be subtle and can lurk within many "positive" parenting approaches; parental control undermines the very behaviors we wish to inculcate in our children; providing autonomy support--the opposite of control--is a challenge, even when parents are committed to doing so. With controversy in the literature about parental control and attention in the media on the ways in which parents step over the control line (e.g., screaming on the soccer sidelines, pressuring children in academics), this book is especially timely. It provides an empathic view of how easily parents can become trapped in controlling styles by emphasizing performance and hooking their own self-esteem on children's performance. Examples of how this can happen in academic, sporting, and peer situations with their emphasis on competition and hierarchy are provided, as well as strategies for parenting in highly involved but autonomy supportive ways. A highly readable yet research-based treatment of the topic of parental control, this book: *explores the controversial topic of parental control; addresses controversy about the positive and negative effects of parental control; and disentangles various parenting concepts, such as involvement, structure, and control; *illustrates how control can be overt, such as in the use of corporal punishment or covert, as in the use of controlling praise; *provides evidence that control may produce compliance in children preventing them from initiating and taking responsibility for their own behavior; *explores why parents are controlling with their children, including environmental and economic stresses and strains, characteristics of children that "pull" for control, and factors in parents' own psychologies that lead them to be "hooked" on children's performance; and *provides examples of control in the areas of academics and sports--the hierarchical and competitive nature of these domains is seen as contributing to parents' tendencies to become controlling in these areas.

Social Control and Self-Control Theories of Crime and Deviance
Author: L.Edward Wells
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351548492
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 565
Book Description
Control theories have dominated criminological theory and research since the 1969 publication of Hirschi's seminal work on the social bond. Social control and self-control theorists are unique in suggesting that patterns in criminal behaviors are better explained by variations in social constraints rather than by individual motivational impulses, thus indicating that their main concerns are the explication and clarification of the techniques, processes, and institutions of informal social control. The four major sections of this volume focus on: the similarities and differences among the major contributors to the early developmental stage of social control theory; the central importance of parents, peers, and schools in the creation of informal control mechanisms and their link to crime and delinquency; the theoretical underpinnings of self-control theory, including empirical tests and criticisms; and theoretical integrations of social control and self-control theories with various motivational theories of crime and delinquency.
