Any kind of family therapy that provides a function is valuable to the health of all members of the family. Adolescents and children with disruptive behavior problems have the most to gain from the support and nurturing of the rest of their family. One of the best ways to protect the mental, social, and emotional well-being of any adolescent in the family is to use an evidence based program and stick to it. This understanding of following through with a program has evolved over time and proves that SFP is one of many powerful tools a family can use to avoid disruptive behavior problems with adolescents.
