On assignment in Belfast, he manages to end up in the back garden of abrasive, suicidal supermarket worker Janet (Roisin Gallagher).

The 9 Step Negativity Detox is a powerful series that will teach you the nine simple steps to free you from the unnecessary causes of negativity in your life. One of the UK’s leading child behaviour experts, this is a fantastic opportunity to gain insight from a true pioneer in the field. We have a choice in how we respond to any given situation, and the more we practise, the better we will become at supporting our children. Lauren Laverne presents coverage of the annual music ceremony, in which the album of the year is decided from a shortlist of 12 artists: Arctic Monkeys (who, at their fifth attempt, tied with Radiohead for the most Mercury nominations) and Lankum (the Mercury’s infamously “token” folk nomination) join the diverse list of Ezra Collective, Fred Again, J Hus, Jessie Ware, Jockstrap, Loyle Carner, Olivia Dean, Raye, Shygirl and Young Fathers.This unique approach is not only what differentiates Marie’s gentle guidance, but also what makes it so successful.

Come down the travelators, exit Sainsbury's, turn right and follow the pedestrianised walkway to Crown Walk and turn right - and Coles will be right in front of you. If you’re in a situation that makes you feel out of control, like when a child isn’t listening to you or following instructions, your response may be to shout in an attempt to regain control, or even to turn a blind eye, as you’re too exhausted to intervene. Marie Gentles draws on her decades of expertise supporting children across the behavioural spectrum, along with their parents and teachers, to show us how to establish positive relationships that bring out the best in our children. There are many moments of joy in our relationships with our children: but what about those times we're faced with defiance, disruption and seemingly endless cycles of negativity? Have small goals initially, nothing too big or overwhelming, and then every step of progress is a step in the right direction, and remember my saying: There is no such thing as perfection, only progression.

Now imagine if the same young person was to behave in the exact same undesirable way, but this time your perception of their behaviour was entirely different: this time you perceive their behaviour as communication. Children and young people need to feel emotionally safe before they can learn and before their system can wire for calm. What would you say to students who might have been getting in trouble at school and want to make a fresh start this term? In practice, this will lead to an adjustment in how you respond to all sorts of situations, not just those with the children in your life.
