His seemingly insurmountable problem behavior was dramatically altered and he achieved a degree of harmonious interaction with his family beyond what anyone might have thought possible. Narrator Dr. Gerald R. Patterson, internationally renowned child psychotherapist, explains that Tim's disruptive behavior was the natural result of a mutual conditioning process whereby pain control was used by his parents to train Tim to behave as he did, and by Tim to train them to strike out at him. As illustrated by this award winning film, they were taught to replace this self defeating process with a systematic method of behavior modification. |
