Discover...
 How to recognize and
encourage the best within your child or teen
Why negative behavior
is actually a cry for help: “Help me find
a better way to meet my needs.”
Why children and teens actually want you to set limits, even when they resist
How to envision the
family you want — and then create it, day by day
Why all parents “lose it” at times — and how to remain
calm
and centered under stress.
An Unexpected Bonus
As we learn how to recognize and encourage the best within
our children and teens, inevitably we discover the best within ourselves. |
