Understanding Young Children's Behavior.
Reinsberg, Judy
Young Children, v54 n4 p54-57 Jul 1999
Notes that caregivers, parents, and teachers struggle with discipline; suggests that examination of possible causes of unacceptable behaviors may lead to understanding. Contends that reflection rather than reaction can promote positive outcomes as five basic issues contribute to child behavior: (1) developmental stage; (2) individual difference; (3) environment; (4) situations new to the child; and (5) unmet emotional needs.
