- Summary:
- "Feilden shares personal experiences and frustrating challenges to create an indispensable resource for teachers who wish to unravel the mysteries of teenage behaviours. Addressing increasing rates of exclusion, the book introduces the reader to teenage defence mechanisms and explores difficult behaviours. By revealing the desire to be understood, a yearning to be loved and a capacity to change, the book gives teachers the tools needed to build their own personal roadmap of the teenage brain when they feel lost, confused or confounded by the actions of young people who are viewed by society as failures to thrive. Offering a fresh approach built on years of experience, Beneath the Behaviour effectively merges theoretical psychology and real-life narrative, and is the perfect resource for those who wish to feel more curious and hopeful about their relationships with young people"-- Provided by publisher.
