Making Children Mind Without Losing Yours

If anyone understands why children behave the way they do, it's psychologist and best-selling author Dr. Kevin Leman. Equipping you with seven principles of Reality Discipline, this father of five shows you how to: get kids to do what you want them to do; foil finicky eaters, turn off temper tantrums, and minimize sibling rivalries; use authority and decisiveness to show your kids you're not a pushover; know when to take the little buzzards by the beak; set suitable allowances, curfews, and privileges; put yourself back in the driver's seat. Questions at the end of each chapter, a discussion guide, and Dr. Leman's real-life examples give you sure-fire techniques for developing a loving, no-nonsense approach for raising children.
