Publisher's summary

Don't you wish you had a magical device that could tell you everything that's going on in your child's head?

It's a lovely Sunday morning, and you had a nice quiet stroll in the park in mind, but your little one had other plans….

Barely three minutes into your stroll, unconsolable crying, screaming, flailing, and utter chaos ensue—and nothing you do seems to be helping. Now everyone's staring at you and making you feel like you're the worst parent ever.

You think to yourself…. If only you could talk to your kid and find out what the problem is—but you can't. Besides, you're probably thinking they're too young to even know what's actually bothering them themselves, let alone articulate their feelings to you.

According to The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, “When we ignore our feelings it creates a 'boomerang' effect where the emotions will just come back later, and sometimes even stronger than they were before.”—And this is true for children, too.

As most of us know from experience, the emotional baggage we have from our childhood can be difficult, if not impossible to get rid of. And for some of us, this weight can be so unbearable that it keeps us from moving forward and getting anywhere in life.

The good news is…you can do things differently for your child. You can raise them to master their emotions—and be the master of their own destiny! —And with no fancy tools, tutors, or training required…just you, a little time and patience…and this book!

This easy-to-digest parenting book is filled with information and practical advice from a child speech and language therapist with over two decades of experience.

In this handy guide, you will discover:

• The secret to never having to go through another tantrum again—learn how to get your child to tell you what they're feeling

How to help your children thrive and improve your parenting skills. If you are worried about their future, you must read this book. Activities are focused on building the emotional intelligence of children. Practical communication skills for parents are essential for parents raising young children. Communication is just not limited to verbal cues. It is essential to identify emotions even from body language.

Our communication skills must include looking for role models. I remember trying to shave because my dad was doing it.

It is an easy-to-listen-to audiobook filled with practical advice from a child speech and language therapist with over two decades of experience.

A Must Have Resouce for Parents Raising Thier Kids

This audiobook is well-written and narrated professionally. The topic and information in the audiobook are significant because so many kids are struggling with a lack of confidence and becoming followers in situations that do not favor their well-being. They then find themselves in harmful and sometimes life-threatening conditions. In addition, bullying is prominent and has resulted in suicide and loss of lives. The author uses methods of engagement with the child for the growth and development of emotional behavior. Parents and children play an active role and thereby take ownership of outcomes. This is a great approach, and many kids desire structure. I like that overall accountability is expected from a foundational perspective. Parent involvement allows feedback and monitoring in a positive fashion. There are numerous games and exercises to work with as a team. This audiobook will be a great reference for years to come.
