Parenting Tough Kids

Book excerpt: At the heart of this book is a healthy collection of winning ways to bring about helpful organisational and behavioural changes for all children, including those who 'do it tough'; who learn differently, react differently and think they can't. Filled with real case studies and real ideas useful to every mum and dad this refreshing approach keeps the focus on building improved structures and behaviours, rather than becoming stuck and seeing a son or a daughter as 'the problem child'. Every mother and father needs to know how to steer their child towards effective ways to: improve memory and organisation; deal with anger; build better before school and after school routines; get homework and chores done more easily; keep to a bedtime, stay in bed and get to sleep; create friendships and deal with school bullies; build their emotional resilience. PARENTING TOUGH KIDS delivers simple proven strategies to improve the behaviour, organisation, learning, friendship & emotion of all children.
