Your friend is an elementary school teacher who has noticed that there are a few children in his class who are very aggressive and, consequently, have been rejected by the other children in the class

Your friend would like to train these aggressive children to behave more appropriately and has come to you for advice. What elements should be included in the training program?
What will be an ideal response?

A good answer will be similar to the following:
According to Dodge and Crick, children can be trained to interpret and respond to others' actions in less aggressive ways. First, these aggressive children need to be taught that aggression is painful and does not solve problems. Second, the children need to be taught to interpret others' intentions accurately. For example, they need to be taught to pay attention to cues that signal non-hostile intent on the part of others. Third, the children need to be taught effective, prosocial ways to solve interpersonal disputes.
