Happy Children Come from Happy Homes

This encyclopedic guide will help you to raise happy, confident, emotionally healthy children. Beginning with the basics of building a happy family, you'll learn that no matter what type of family unit you have (single-parent, blended family, traditional), you can provide the proper values and emotional stability that your child needs.

This book offers detailed instructions on dealing with every aspect of the psychological well-being of kids, from birth to adulthood, including:
Handling everyday issues on the playground, at school, and at home
Coping with and finding help for serious mental health problems
Setting a good example and fostering emotional security in your child

Discussions on specific entries give you both the general knowledge and the specific advice you need to help your child cope with a wide array of emotional problems. As indispensable as a first-aid manual, this invaluable resource will enable you to soothe the psychological cuts and bruises of growing up.
