API has invited Dr. Laura to share with us about how we can stop yelling and start connecting, including:
- Why attachment is the foundation of your child’s ability to manage herself, from babyhood right through the teen years.
- Regulating your own emotions so you can help your child.
- Why kids misbehave — and how to help them WANT to cooperate.
- What the last thirty years of research tell us about the kind of discipline that helps kids turn out great.
- How to set effective limits — and when it’s ok to “give in.”
- Why your relationship with your child is the most important factor in effective discipline.
- Helping kids process their emotions.
- How to use play to get better behavior from your child.
- Why Emotional Intelligence (EQ) is more important to your child’s success in life than IQ
