Dalla quarta di copertina

Bring harmony to your house by building your children's problem-solving skills

If you are lost for answers to your daughter's bullying (or being the victim of a bully), your son's sudden bursts of anger, homework issues, or the constant bickering among your kids, Dr. Myrna Shure has the proven solution you so desperately need. In her national bestseller Raising a Thinking Child, Dr. Shure introduced parents to her original "I Can Problem Solve" approach to teaching children the critical thinking skills they need to solve problems on their own. Now, in Thinking Parent, Thinking Child, she shows how to apply "I Can Problem Solve" techniques to almost 100 of the top issues and problems kids face that concern parents most­­such as being a sore loser, acting aggressively, having trouble with friendships or teachers, or experiencing a major loss.

With help from Dr. Shure you will learn how to:

• Become a thinking parent--when a difficult situation arises, weigh your options and help your children figure out for themselves what to do, rather than reacting impetuously and telling them what to do
• Change your children's behavior from aggressive, inhibited, and fearful to more cooperative and empathetic and better equipped to handle disappointments
• Create an open environment at home so children feel comfortable communicating their problems and issues

"If you're looking for a parenting book that doesn't rehash the obvious, this is it. . . . Shure helps you help your kids help themselves, making them less susceptible to peer pressure and worse later on."
--The New York Post
