Summary

When your child consistently displays noncompliant or defiant behavior-disrupting your household and causing problems at school that threaten to affect his or her chances of success in the long run-it's hard to know what to do. You may already feel as though you've tried everything. And if you're like many parents facing the same issue, you may be at your wit's end.
