Anger Management for Children?

Question

Are there anger management programs for kids?

I know a 10 year old who is going through a lot right now. She is becoming increasingly angry, destructive, and now violent. She's in therapy (I dont think this person is helping) but she needs something specific to help her address this anger.

Answer 1

Church is the best therapy.

Answer 2

Yes, there are tons of programs. I am unsure what part of the world you reside in, but consider searching online.

It might also be helpful to address the cause of the problem with her.

Unfortuanately not all problems can be removed. As an example family issues. It might be helpful though if an adult speaks to her parents on her behalf to address their parenting skills, if home were the issue.

An adult friend might also help bridge the gap, and give a listening ear.

Good luck!

Answer 3

Why is she angry?

Is this brought on by mental disorder or has something happened to make her act out this way?

Get to the bottom of the problem and then treatment will be more successful

Good luck

Answer 4

I use to have anger problems myself.

theraby does not do SQUAT!

I solved my problems on my own.

Answer 5

I am sure there is.

You should check with local affiliates, maybe even a juvenile judge.

Hope you find her some help.
