Taming the Dragon in Your Child: Solutions for Breaking the Cycle of Family Anger (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780471594055)

Angry children are like storybook dragons - breathing fire one moment, enchanting and harmless the next. This guide helps parents to recognize and diffuse the situations that trigger their children's sulks and tantrums. Parents learn how to tell if a child's anger is a normal expression of hurt, fear and frustration, or a warning sign of serious family stress. There are also suggestions for breaking family fighting, setting appropriate boundaries, finding disciplinary techniques that work, dealing with divorce, abuse, school problems, death and other crises, as well as knowing when to get professional help.
