About this title

Synopsis

How do 9/11-era parents deal with the fearful, violent world where their children are growing up? Two experts in non-violence show how to practice established conflict resolution techniques with children from birth through adolescence. It starts with better awareness of our own needs and wants, with peaceful ways to meet them. Words that solve problems without arguments lead families into sharing, working, and playing together so that peace is a normal feature of daily life--including dealing effectively with bullies.
