We adults tend to be real keen on unilateral solving problems. So that's why you want to be collaborative instead of unilateral. So you can prioritize as well, because, as you mentioned, we're not going to be able to solve them all at once.
Imagine a world where kids and adults work together to solve problems, rather than adults making all the decisions. That's the vision developmental psychologist and best-selling author Dr. Ross Greene brings to life in this episode of the LPP Podcast. In a candid chat with LPP coach Zach Rhoads, Dr. Greene unpacks his Collaborative and Proactive Solutions (CPS) model, a strategy designed to address challenging behaviors in children by involving them in the problem-solving process. Dr.
Greene's approach is all about teamwork. He believes that both kids and adults should have their needs and wants considered when tackling issues. While it might not seem directly linked to addiction, the principles of CPS are incredibly relevant. The methods Dr. Greene discusses align closely with the strategies used in the Life Process Program, which encourages clients to collaboratively work through problems with others in their lives.
One of the key takeaways from this episode is the importance of gathering information from children about what's making it hard for them to meet certain expectations. This isn't just about getting kids to behave better; it's about understanding their perspectives and concerns, which can often be eye-opening for adults. By listening to children, we gain insights that are crucial for effective problem-solving. Dr. Greene also highlights the need to prioritize safety concerns while addressing behavioral challenges.
For example, if a child is running towards a busy street, immediate action is necessary. However, for less urgent issues, a collaborative approach can lead to more sustainable solutions. This episode offers valuable lessons for anyone dealing with challenging behaviors, whether in children or adults. By embracing a collaborative mindset, we can create environments where everyone feels heard and respected. Tune in to hear more about how Dr. Greene's CPS model can transform the way we approach problem-solving.
