Toddlers and preschoolers are unpredictable, and their antics often keep parents guessing: Why won't my five-year-old eat his veggies? Why does my two-year-old keep biting her sister? Why can't my three-year-old stay in his own bed? Why must I repeat myself every time I tell my daughter to do something? The naughty as well as challenging behaviors of young children can drive even the most patient parents to their wits' end. In these pages, parents learn how to cope with and correct many of the most common behavioral problems that little ones demonstrate.

Children get angy for many different reasons. Exhausted parents often try to avoid anything that might trigger their anger. Author Dr. Connie Schnoes, however, tells parents not to shield children from situations that make them angry. Instead, all children must learn that feeling angry sometimes is normal and there are appropriate ways to control and express anger without hurting themselves or others.

Dr. Bowers examines the challenges a child with ADHD presents and offers parents workable, effective ways of handling the behavior problems. He reminds parents that, despite the diagnosis, children need to be held responsible for their actions and he suggests how to use positive discipline strategies to help them learn better behavior.

All children need to learn how to get along with others. It's an ability that may have as much or more to do with success in later life as children's educational accomplishments. And just like reading and math skills, social skills can be taught to children. Getting Along with Others is an engaging activity book parents will love to share with their children. Twenty-four fun-filled and creatively illustrated charts encourage youth to tell the truth, ask permission, share with others, say they're sorry, and more. Plus, six additional charts allow adults to target skills they want kids to learn. Also included, suggestions on how to effectively use the book and offer rewards that will keep children interested and motivated to improve. Getting Along with Others is a simple, satisfying way for parents to enjoy quality time and, ultimately, more meaningful relationships with their children.
