From AudioFile
A veteran parenting expert offers an exceptional program on how to seize the initiative when it comes to developing happy and responsible children. Regular family meetings and deftly construed interventions for misbehavior are key suggestions. The program shows how to create a communication structure within the family that clarifies values, spells out expectations, and creates a nurturing crucible for emotional development. With a tone that encourages rather than moralizes, the program holds no illusions about family life these days. It pulls no punches about drugs, sex, and violence. The advice about communication is astute and methodical. The combination of exposition, well-acted vignettes, and authentic author commentary makes the audio move quickly and hold one's attention.
