Look at some of the feedback:

5.0 out of 5 stars This is an excellent book that every parent and teacher should read!, September 28, 2012

By 

Nancy N. Wilson "Book Lover" (Phoenix, AZ USA) -

The authors have created an extremely comprehensive book on how to help children win friends - a challenge for many children which often goes unnoticed. One of my four children struggled with this and I was completely unaware of the problem until he was in 5th grade - not sure how I could have been so blind. Once I realized what was happening, I was at a loss about what to do - and it broke my heart. A manual like this one would have been great help.

I am now helping to rear a granddaughter who is a preschooler and I agree with the authors' comments about the importance of friendship development at such an early age, plus tips on how to pay attention and what to do about it.

A truly happy child always has at least one friend. For some children making and keeping friends comes naturally, but for others, friendship problems can make them feel very sad and lonely. As adults, most of us assume that children know how to approach and talk to friends, but this isn't always the case. How To Win Friends And Influence People for Kids shows you how to teach these skills to your child. Once they have started to master these interpersonal skills, they will naturally attract friends.

This wonderful book also gives your child information and skills to practice so that they can be more popular and a leader among their peers. This is not only a great skill to have at school...but the benefits will continue to add to a successful and happy time all through their lives.

Karen Campbell and Katrina Kahler are two highly experienced teachers who have shown hundreds of children how to make friends, become more popular and maintain positive and happy relationships.

 CONFIDENT KIDS

How Parents Can Raise Positive, Confident, Resilient and Focused Kids

Every parent wants the best for their children. We all want them to grow up to be confident and positive adults. Raising a child to be resilient and able to deal with life's ups and downs is also something that most parents strive for. Confident Kids will give you practical strategies for shaping and improving your child's outlook and mindset. Parents have a huge influence over the way their children think and deal with life's situations and events. Happy and successful children usually grow up to be well-adjusted adults who lead fulfilling lives.

Follow our advice and help your child to achieve their full potential by being confident, positive, respectful, resilient, focused and organized. You can find this incredibly helpful book at amazon.com http://amzn.to/O3QkxL

This is an very small example of the type of information you'll find in Confident Kids:

Some Ways You Can Create a Happy Family:

Family traditions bring the family close together on special occasions. They could include how you celebrate birthdays and special holidays, e.g. family barbecues, parties, reading special books, singing songs, watching family movies or going on holiday together. I've seen many families who go away camping together as a group every Christmas and this is often passed down through the generations.

Play sport, join a club or do activities together. Everyone in my immediate family (husband, two kids and myself) surf. There is nothing better than going out for a surfing session together. Other families all become involved in their local sporting club, scouts group, theatre group etc.

Don't encourage your family members to be competitive with each other. Model and praise your children when they support and cheer on their family members.

Be careful not to spoil one member or give more attention to one child over another.

Have guidelines, rules and boundaries that are clear and understood. You need to be consistent with everyone in the family. Family jealousy will erupt if you're not fair.

Eat together at night time. The statistics for the amount of time parents spend talking to their children are horrifying. The average parent spends less than 40 minutes a week talking to their child. If you have a family dinnertime, you can talk to your children for around 30 minutes and this allows you to find out about their day, how they're going with school, sport, friends, interests etc. This time also allows siblings the time to talk to and appreciate each other. Each family approaches eating dinner differently, some like to eat in front of the TV, others at the dining table. Honestly it really doesn't matter as long as you're all together and talking.

Some children aren't allowed to speak during dinnertime and I think this is a huge mistake. Eating together also gives parents of tweens and teens the opportunity to monitor what their children are eating and how much they are eating.

How To Improve Your Child's Behavior Today

Secrets To Raising Well-Behaved Children

 by Karen Campbell and Katrina Kahler

--> http://amzn.to/NiaBDu

The three secrets to raising a well-behaved child are providing a great role model, consistency and expectations. Sounds simple doesn’t it? Well, if you follow this book's advice and stick to it, you will see changes take place almost immediately.

Many parents are struggling to maintain control of their children. They are drowning and don’t know how to shape their children’s behavior.
And more and more children are displaying behavior problems in schools and homes. An increasing number of preschool kids are coming to school with anti-social behavior including swearing, fighting and non-cooperation. Many teens are out of control, disrespectful and unhappy.

Parents are responsible for shaping their child's behavior from birth. Some parents find this quite difficult and they tend to give-up and give-in to their child's desires and demands. Giving-in teaches the child that if they scream loud enough, throw a tantrum or become physically violent, then they will get their way.

So if you are struggling or just simply want your child to have respectful behavior, buy this book and follow the advice.

Karen Campbell and Katrina Kahler  share their secrets to successful behavior modification and shaping in 'How To Improve Your Child's Behavior Today'.

They also have a number of other Parental Advice books on Amazon. 'The Parenting Trap: How To Avoid The Pitfalls And Raise A Child You'll Be Proud Of' combines all 7 books in the series.

Start working on your child's behavior today, they'll be happier and so will you!
