Whose Tune Are We Dancing to Anyway?: A Guide to Parent Participation in Non-Violent Resistance (Nvr) for Parents, Carers and Professionals
No Customer Reviews
Parent participation in Non-violent Resistance (NVR) is an evidence-based model of practice developed by author Elisabeth Heismann and colleagues that uses principles of NVR to help carers resist violent and out of control behaviours and to establish a warm, loving, and containing parental presence with their children. In this unique book, three parents with lived experience of using NVR and a family therapist who has used the approach extensively demonstrate the experience and positive impact of parent participation in NVR in one of London's most polarized boroughs in terms of the distribution of wealth and deprivation, where gang problems, knife crime, and child sexual exploitation are rife. The challenges they have faced represent issues many families experience in the UK and beyond, where young people, families, and communities can feel judged and pathologized as 'bad' and consequently do not voluntarily access existing social care, mental health and educational services, or want to 'dance to their tune.'
