by Jane Bluestein

On This Page

Description

This reference contains practical, kid-tested ideas to help parents deal with everything from monsters in the closet to unsolicited criticism of parenting abilities. The book is the result of numerous interviews, polls and conversations with parents and parenting experts as well as the author's own experiences and observations. She looks at the changes that are possible and doable: small, specific parenting behaviors, beliefs and attitudes that can alter the course of the relationship in a show more big way. She shares specific, concrete examples of ways to build character, school success, cooperation, thinking skills, social skills and responsibility while improving family relationships, minimizing conflicts and enhancing parenting skills. show less
