Everything You Need to Know About Childhood Disobedience

"Child Disobedience and Noncompliance: A Review", is a journal article written by Larry M. Kalb and Rolf Loeber in March of 2003 in Pediatrics. In this article Kalb and Loeber have compiled research from various sources to show the differences between the behavior of children according to age. They outline in this article the various problems that parents are having with there children, at what age, and also how wide spread this problem is. They also go into different types of "parental discipline" techniques that can be used and show those techniques that parents tend to use most often. This article not only explains what parents can do to keep their child from being noncompliant but it also shows results of how "parent interaction"can actually help children which is backed by studies that have been done. I picked this Journal article because it has a lot of information compiled together from various sources that I can go back and take a look at individually instead of having to keep searching over and over for articles. I like that the information given in this journal article not only brings the problem of childhood disobedience to the forefront but it also gives different solutions to the problem. Kalb and Loeber have put together a well organized article that can help in various parts of my fourth essay.
