How to Ease Tension, Conflict and Develop Healthy, Happier Relationships.
How do we help our children: Cope when a new baby is born? Sort out arguments without ripping each other's heads off? Care, share and consider each other's feelings? Talk and listen to each other? Tolerate each other's differences as they grow? Can we: Love our different children equally? Meet their competing needs? Help them develop supportive relationships for life?
These issues matter to our children and they matter to us. How they relate will have a profound influence on their childhood, their adulthood, their behaviour and the nature of our family life. Yet the sibling bond is largely ignored by most parenting books.
This book breaks the mould, offering an unprecedented insight into the development and impact of our children's relationships with each other, and what we can do to help form their earliest days together to adolescence and beyond.
Bringing together the collected wisdom of parents and top professionals, it explores ground-breaking new research and offers understanding and invaluable information on crucial questions faced by all families with children.
This is a book of support and solutions for families as they are, not as some pretend they should be. It is the book for parents with children who laugh, fight, bicker, play, talk, conspire, love, want and need. And it is the book many of us have been waiting for.
