Peaceful Parent, Happy Kids: How to Stop Yelling and Start Connecting
Categories: Parenting & Relationships
Clinical psychologist Laura Markham explains how parents can raise cooperative, confident children without yelling, threats or punishment. The book has three main ideas: parents regulating their own emotions, fostering connection with their children and coaching rather than controlling. Markham gives age-by-age examples and scripts for everyday conflicts, from bedtime and tantrums to sibling fights, and shows how empathy and limits can work together.
