first off i dont suggest anger management programs for any kids.. i think i make problems worse.. you should try to figure things out at home.. get to the source of the anger and try to do what it takes to help with it.. kids nned communication from the parents and siblings.. not a stranger..

Taking a kid to anger management will only take the time away from them that could be something else and tick them off more.. Therefor more anger problems.

I think that if your child has something wrong with them such as an anger problem or depression or something that does not deal with their health, I think the best help, medicine for them is the parents. I believe that if you are involved in your childs life as a family, and have an open relationship with them, you can help them with problems such as these.

Before you drag your bratty child's butt to an anger management specialist why don't you try asking (and please ask nicely or have a heart-to-heart talk with your child) your child(son/daughter) what is wrong with her. If you have done a good job in raising your child in an open communicative environment then it would be no problem but if not then you have another problem. Try reading online columns, articles about dealing with a child's temper or issues. Going to an anger management specialist should be your last option (speacially in these hard times of global recession)

Comment #6 crystal from asia -

I was also have this anger when I was also a teen but it was due to some bad experiences I am having with my family. I resent them for manipulating me. I just can't understand why they have to force me to do what they want not what I want. I became bitter and full of anger at that time. Now, as I gradually maturing, my anger lessens as I learned how to understand things and control my emotions.

Anger management is quite an issue for troubled teens to have to deal with. I should know, as I used to be a troubled teen, but now one may call me a troubled adult, haha. I am just kidding, I really do not know what it is that could easily get a person down, and so very fast that they would not even be able to understand themselves, what had just taken place.

"Re : Teen Anger"

Anger management programs for troubled teens and good idea, but first you as their parents should know the story behind why are they that way. If is it because something happened before? Or something bothering them? As a parent, I used to bring my troubled teen in a wilderness program. In this program, they study a lot of things, learn new ideas and socialize with other teens.

Instead of sending your child in a anger management program, why not send your trouble teen in a wilderness programs?

"Troubled teens exhibit anger"

Almost always, teens who are angry are angry for a reason. You should first and foremost always keep an open line of communication between you and your child.

Encourage them to talk about what makes them the most angry. It could be a surging spurt of hormones as they enter puberty, or it could be something that you nag them about. Of course, you don't feel as though you nag, but they may feel that way.

Talk to your child, don't let it to someone else to figure out. You may be part of the problem.

"Anger Management"

Yes, I think a "Anger management program for troubled teens" is more likely to be an "Anger CREATION program". It will most likely miss the most important point which is paying attention to your teen!

You are just telling them they are angry and that you will "fix" them. But you will never listen to them or understand what their difficulties are.

Get with the real program... and that is listening to your teens! That means really listening and not just pretending. Also. remember you listen with your ears not your mouth!

In case you missed that... "SHUT UP AND LISTEN!" Try it just once and you might be amazed!

"Maintenance of teen anger"

Teens today are very impatient and get easily depressed and angry when they meet with failure...also teens are unable to manage their anger and take harsh steps which can destroy their whole life.Its very essential for these teens to undergo a counseling session which can make a huge difference to build a personality of teens.

"Angry teens"

Teens today are a different breed than when we were kids. They are overindulged, over medicated (I am not saying ALL kids are medicated, but I think it is more widely common than before), and have a sense of entitlement that we were more lacking back then.

When they aren't getting what they feel is due them, i.e., what every other kid on the block has, they get pissy and sullen. Instead of growing a work ethic in this generation, we give them everything, they work for nothing and expect everything.
