| Abstract | "If you are the parent of a toddler or preschooler, chances are you know a thing or two about tantrums. While those epic meltdowns can certainly be part of "normal" toddler behavior, they are still maddening, stressful, and exhausting--for everyone involved. What can you do to keep your cool and help your child calm down? Rebecca Schrag Hershberg, child psychologist and mother of two, has a unique understanding of both the science behind tantrums and what works in the heat of the moment to nip blowups in the bud. With her customizable plan, you'll learn:<BR /><BR /> *Why your toddler's developing brain is hardwired for "big emotions."<BR /> *What you may be doing (unintentionally) to encourage outbursts.<BR /> *Ways to use structure and routines to help your child feel secure.<BR /> *How to reduce tantrums at tough times of day, from wake-up to bedtime.<BR /> *Strategies for managing tantrums under difficult circumstances, from travel to moving to divorce.<BR /> *Ways to deepen your parent-child connection--starting right now"-- Provided by publisher. |
| Abstract | "Most parents of toddlers and preschoolers know a thing or two about tantrums--those epic meltdowns that seem to come out of nowhere. Even though tantrums can be part of "normal" toddler behavior, they are maddening, stressful, and exhausting. What can parents do to help everyone step back and calm down? With candor and wit, Rebecca Schrag Hershberg, psychologist and mom of two, explains the science behind why tantrums occur and what parents might unintentionally be doing to encourage them. She offers a customizable plan for nipping blowups in the bud while fostering healthy development and deeper parent-child connections. Imagine family life with equal measures of love and limits--and less drama"-- Provided by publisher. |
