A child will often ‘act out’ when they perceive that something is wrong or when they feel insecure, stressed, frightened or unhappy. Acting out can also include: wanting attention, self-esteem issues, wanting to be powerful and noticed, and so on. These may include: fighting, throwing tantrums, making up stories, lying, withdrawal, and other anti-social behaviours.
Anthony works closely with families, schools and other support agencies working with children.
