What do you do with a little kid who…won’t brush her teeth…screams in his car seat…pinches the baby...refuses to eat vegetables…throws books in the library...runs rampant in the supermarket? Organized by common challenges and conflicts, this book is an essential manual of communication strategies, including a chapter that addresses the special needs of children with sensory processing and autism spectrum disorders.

This user-friendly guide will empower parents and caregivers of young children to forge rewarding, joyful relationships with terrible two-year-olds, truculent three-year-olds, ferocious four-year-olds, foolhardy five-year-olds, self-centered six-year-olds, and the occasional semi-civilized seven-year-old. And, it will help little kids grow into self-reliant big kids who are cooperative and connected to their parents, teachers, siblings, and peers.

Life changing insight

This book has made me understand, tolerate & empathize more with my kids. It’s helped me translate the love in my heart into action

Great Read

Wonderful book, loved all real life stories and found them to be very helpful and informative.

This book works

I first listened to this book 3 years ago when my oldest was a defiant toddler. I found that my natural reaction to his defiance was to yell, use timeout, and get frustrated; and that it wasn’t going to work. I listened to this book and applied Joannas simple strategies with much success. He is now almost 5 and has wonderful listening skills, and we have a great relationship.

I am now Re-listening for a refresher for my second born and it is already working. I am so thankful for this book!

The tips aren’t magic and she doesn’t sugar coat it, it’s hard work! It’s a commitment to get creative at connecting with your child to correct their behavior. It’s not as hard as spinning your wheels on frustration though.

Really enjoyed

I really enjoyed listening to this book! I love being able to listen to the book while my toddlers play around me. I found it very helpful and will read it again!
