Raising kids these days isn’t easy. Parents have expectations for their children that often don’t match up with who the child is or his or her temperament. That can lead to problems with behavior that disrupt family life, and end up being counterproductive for the child. We talk to a psychologist about why kids behave the way they do in certain situations, and offer strategies for dealing with a child that can help them grow more responsible and independent.
