Anecdotes including "Handle with Care," "Ask Their Opinions," and "Brag About Them" will help you discover alternatives to nagging, lecturing, or shouting at your kids when you feel pushed to the limits. You'll remember what makes your own children special and find ways of expressing your joy over being their parent.
