Bad Children Can Happen to Good Parents: A Survival Manual for Parents of Difficult Children by Norman E. Hoffman, Ph.D.

ute of Technology, and Dr. Phil Sinaikin, psychiatrist and member of The American Board of Psychology and Neurology.

Hoffman said his pro bono service, like his book, is intended to help get families back on track.

Hoffman, an expert court witness in forensic mental health evaluations, says recognition of the reality of why some children are 'bad' can lead to answers and effective treatment.

"Once parents understand and recognize the problem, the children themselves can also take steps to improving their situation," notes Hoffman. "I want to help children gain feelings of responsibility and accountability as a doorway to improved behavior."

Dr. Norman E. Hoffman, a licensed mental health counselor and marriage and family therapist, specialized in therapy for children at the world-renowned Devereux Foundation. He also completed a one-year clinical internship at the Menninger Memorial Hospital. He conducts workshops which enhance the skills of mental health professionals and is an expert court witness in forensic mental health evaluations.

He is also the founder of The Hoffman Institute (HI) in Daytona Beach. HI was developed to serve families by providing specialized assessments and treatment plans for parents of difficult children. His second book, Bad Children Can Happen to Good Parents, has already resulted in national media appearances including FOX News Live.

Hoffman also has recently established a new program -- the Pro Bono Forensic mental Health Evaluation Program. This is a free mental health evaluation program for parents of difficult children in low to moderate income families. The offer includes the assessment, a report and a treatment plan that might be sufficient to help solve some problems, since not all children need counseling or psychological help, Hoffman said.

An arm of the institute includes the National Board of Forensic Evaluators, an agency endorsed and recognized by the American Counseling Association
