Description:

There's no shortage of advice out there on how to deal with your children's tantrums, but what about your own?

Many parents are reluctant to admit it, but an awful lot of us have trouble controlling our own temper when the kids are unruly. Maybe not all the time, but more often than we’d choose. Obviously we don’t like yelling at the kids, it's just that we can’t help ourselves.

At last, Hollie Smith has written a book that fesses up to the problem, and looks at practical techniques to help us keep a lid on the anger and set our kids the example we want to. She enlists the help of psychologists and anger management experts to find plenty of strategies that help to avoid trouble in the first place. However, recognizing that most of us lose it with our kids from time to time, she also helps us find ways to:

• mind our language

• resist the urge to get physical

• button up before we say anything we’ll regret

• patch it up afterwards

• find a cooler, calmer lifestyle

Cool, Calm Parent is also packed with case studies and quotes from real, everyday parents like you and me. The kind who want to be cool and calm with our kids, but don’t quite manage it all the time.

Target Audience:

Parents who often get mad become of their kids tantrums.
