Summary
One of the reasons for the weakening of family and community and the strengthening of destructive and violent patterns in children is the absence of accepted norms that provide a clear and united stance by responsible adults. Society, therapists, families, and individuals move between conflicting poles regarding children with problematic behaviors. The strength of non-violent resistance (NVR) comes from its ability to create bridges between these poles, opening a third way that is much more than a midway between the two.
