This document discusses child and adolescent firesetting. It notes that fire and burns are leading causes of unintentional injury death for children ages 1-14. Over 50% of arson arrests involve juveniles under 18 and 33% are under 15. Common myths about firesetting are debunked. Firesetting behaviors can be categorized into curiosity, expressive, delinquent, strategic, and pathological typologies based on characteristics and influencing factors. Effective interventions include identifying at-risk youth, performing needs assessments, involving community support networks, providing fire safety education and behavioral health services, and conducting follow-ups. Fire safety education should be age-appropriate, target knowledge gaps, and focus on improving safety.
This document discusses the challenges of remarriage, noting that remarriages have a higher separation/divorce rate than first marriages. It takes 4-7 years to adjust to a remarriage and 40% of remarriages with children separate within 4 years. Common challenges include difficulties blending families, unresolved issues from previous marriages, and the inability to establish a stable new family system. Successful remarriages involve considering the needs of children, establishing clear roles and boundaries, and prioritizing the new marital relationship.
Parental abuse is defined as any act by a child or teenager that causes harm to their parent in an attempt to gain power or control. It can take emotional, verbal, physical, or financial forms and commonly emerges in adolescence. Contrary to popular belief, parental abuse stems from a desire for control rather than anger issues. It affects both parents and children, potentially causing psychological harm, isolation, and difficulty forming healthy relationships. While laws criminalize certain abusive acts, societal perceptions often view the child as a victim rather than offender when authorities intervene in abusive family dynamics. Parental abuse is an increasing issue worldwide that many parents are reluctant to address due to stigma.
The document discusses the influences on personality, specifically discussing the nature vs nurture debate. It notes that both genetic and environmental factors influence personality, with studies finding a roughly 50% genetic contribution. Environmental influences from friends and experiences outside the home also significantly impact personality development according to research on twins and adopted children. Personality is shaped through an interaction of genetic predispositions and one's unique life experiences and interpretation of situations.
The document discusses adolescent cognitive development and covers several key topics. It addresses conflicts adolescents face with parents as they develop their identity. It also looks at the tasks and changes experienced during adolescence, including benefits of peer networks. Finally, it examines cognitive development in adolescents, including biological changes in the brain and puberty, as well as elements of cognition like reasoning, judgment, and processing expertise.
Developmental Issues and Treatment Recommendations for Children Who Witness V...Gary Direnfeld
The effects of witnessing domestic violence are different depending upon age of the child. This presentation explains domestic violence as it relates to children from a developmental perspective.
Children and adolescents with conduct disorder are budding psychopaths.
They repeatedly and deliberately - and often with great joy -violate the rights of others and breach
age-appropriate social norms and rules. Some of them gleefully hurt and torture people or, more
frequently, animals. Others damage property.
The document discusses several sociological trends related to marriage and divorce, including the rise of online dating and social media being cited in divorce petitions. It also examines how divorce has been viewed historically from ancient Roman times to modern times, with perspectives shifting from a purely family matter to a religious sacrament to today's no-fault system. The legal process and emotional impacts of divorce are also summarized.

Conduct Disorder Power Point 2007 Fall PbaLeslie3509
Conduct disorder refers to behavioral and emotional problems in children and adolescents where they have difficulty following rules and behaving appropriately. It is often viewed as "bad" behavior rather than a mental illness. Many factors can contribute to conduct disorder, including brain damage, abuse, genetics, school failure, and traumatic life experiences. Children with conduct disorder often engage in aggressive behavior towards others, destroy property, lie, violate rules, and show little remorse for their actions. Early intervention is important to prevent more serious issues later in life.

There are so many reasons for families that struggles, which leads to juvenile delinquency. We have spoken last week about poverty and that is a huge one, but I will share some others factors since we talked about it already. One of the serious factors that I see is broken homes. When I say broken homes I means homes where there are single parents. Single parents can be a home with just a dad or mom. There are tons of reason why there are single parents in a home. Single parents could be a results of a parent walking out when the child is at an early age, parents may have been divorced, and or separated. There is research that says that shows that females are affected from broken homes more than males, when it comes to juvenile delinquency. Juvenile delinquency is ten to fifteen percent higher in broken homes than intact homes. So broken homes are things that we as parents can control. We can limit our children’s exposure to broken homes(Clemens Bartollas, 2011).
Family rejection is another factor can turn young individuals in to juvenile delinquents. When parents disengage from their children it leaves a huge mark on them. A child really has a black hole around them. The rejection of a father figure in a child life is way more significant than a mother’s rejection. How many times have you seen a teenage boy grow up without his father? A lot of times. How many times have you said to yourself that the kid’s looks lost or out of it? A father being out of a kid’s life could cause a lot of bad actions(Clemens Bartollas, 2011).
Delinquent sibling and criminal parents are another factor that greatly effects whether a kid turns into a juvenile delinquent. Younger kids look up to their older siblings, and sometimes want to be exactly like them when they grow up. Sometimes their siblings have notoriety around the “neighborhood” that they envy or want to emulate. That can be very dangerous for young children, because they want to be what they see. The same things goes with the parents. A child goes up hearing and or seeing his parents being the legend of the town or neighborhood, and want that life and respect to be his own (Clemens Bartollas, 2011).
In conclusion, we must teach our children right and wrong. Without us parents showing our children right way to do things, they will not know. A lot of times it’s not the parents, but more so the company that the juvenile keeps around. So we must also keep an eye on who our children is around. We have to guide our children because they do not know the cause and effects to a person’s actions like we do. Where have been in a lot of situations that they only dream about. Let us be role models and parents to our kids, and not be their friend, but instead be a mentor to them.

2. The Problem
Fire and burns are the leading causes of unintentional home
injury death for 1 to 14 year olds, and the second leading
cause of death for children less than one. (Burn Institute, 2009)
There were an estimated 13,900 child-play structure fires
reported in 2002, with 210 deaths, 1,250 injuries, and $339
million in direct damage. (U.S. Fire Administration, 2006)
3. The Problem
Over 50% of all arrests for arson in the United States involve
juveniles under the age of 18 (Office of Juvenile Justice and
Delinquency Prevention, 2007).
Of those juveniles arrested for arson, 33% were under the
age of 15 (OJJDP, 2007).
4. The Problem
Property damage from juvenile-set structure fires was $328
million during 2006 (NFPA, 2009).
School fires account for over $200 million loss annually.
More than half are intentionally set (NFPA, 2009).
5. Common Myths & Misunderstandings
The bigger the fire, the more serious the firesetting.
Juveniles who set fires are pyromaniacs.
Juveniles who set fires have an urge or obsession with fire or
deep emotional problems.
Firesetting is related to bedwetting and cruelty to animals.
Firesetting is a difficult behavior to treat.
Playing with fire is a normal part of a child’s development
that they will grow out of (boys will be boys)
Punishing or scaring juveniles will make them stop playing
with fire.
None of the above statements are accurate assumptions.
7. Characteristics of Firesetting
Age
Any, but spikes at:
Mid-late toddlerhood (3-5)—increased
cognitive curiosity, motor skill
development, power struggles w/parents
Early adolescence (12-15)—experimental
behavior, peer influence, independence
through defying authority
8. Characteristics of Firesetting
Family Characteristics
Any, but greater likelihood of:
Minimal problem-solving abilities.
Lack of structure & rule enforcement in the home.
Greater chance of parental discord.
Higher levels of problem history
(domestic violence, mental illness, substance abuse).
9. Characteristics of Firesetting
Psychiatric Diagnosis (DSM-IV, APA 1994*)
Firesetting may occur more often in children with:
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
Conduct Disorder
Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD)
Disruptive Behavior Disorder NOS
*Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition (DSM-IV)
American Psychiatric Association, 1994
10. A Note About Typology
No consistent “profile” has
been found of a child or
adolescent who sets fires.
It can be any child.
There is considerable diversity
among the children, and their
families, who are involved in
firesetting behavior.
Typologies are best viewed
as a way of framing the
possible motivation for
firesetting, and organizing
the proper intervention
response.
Typologies are not particularly
useful in an intervention
program protocol. Response
designators of “simple” and
“complex” may be more
appropriate.
13. Curiosity Firesetting
Influencing Factors:
Exposure to fire activity (caregivers may
smoke, use a fireplace, etc.)
Access to fire starting materials
Lack of supervision
Lack of structured time
Lack of fire safety education
Parenting abilities may be limited
14. Curiosity Firesetting
Behavior exhibited:
Typically use matches or lighters
Burn items easily found in the home
Younger children set fires in hidden locations
(closet, under bed).
May try to extinguish (older) or ignore (younger) the fire.
Without intervention, will often repeat the behavior.

Even though each of our educational interventions is individualized to the specific family, youth and situation, I have found that these are the common factors we repeatedly address with our families.
