For various reasons, educators are increasingly confronted with psychological abnormalities and disorders in children and adolescents. Knowledge about their causes, prevalence, and development, as well as effective treatment options, is of great pedagogical importance. On one hand, this knowledge enables them to engage as competent conversation partners with parents and therapists; on the other hand, it serves as a professional tool in dealing with the affected children and adolescents. This book provides concise and understandable fundamental information on these topics. The specific requirements for educational work with children and their families in schools, daycare centers, and home environments are discussed. Opportunities for professional pedagogical action are presented in a practical manner, illustrated with case studies and organized by themes.
