In the chapters that follow, Dr. McIntire offers solutions for dealing with the beginnings of bad language and bad habits and then describes discipline strategies that are often required.
Children want to know “Do you like me?” and “Can we talk?” Parents ask, “How can I deal with his tantrums? What about his computer addiction? What can I do about the bullies she faces every school day? How do I handle it when he (or she) gets interested in sex? Alcohol? Drugs?” Dr. McIntire’s book provides effective, practical and proven answers to these questions.
Dr. McIntire, father of three, is professor emeritus of psychology, University of Maryland. His books are published in eight languages.
