About this title

Synopsis

Even well-meaning parents can, through lack of awareness, neglect their children’s most basic needs. And neglect can take many forms—from overindulgence to lack of communications. E. Kent Hayes has spent a lifetime working to advocate for children and their family. He has gleaned those lessons into this guidebook that explains how to avoid trouble before it starts and how to:

• Instill the value of delayed gratification in children who want it now
• Create a flexible day-to-day structure
• Talk with a noncommunicative teenager
• Balance permissiveness and discipline
• Help your child deal with negative peer pressure
• Handle problems, such as drug abuse, teen pregnancy, and vandalism
• Laugh with your child
• Build a lifelong loving relationship with your child

Why Good Parents Have Bad Kids is essential reading for every parent, written by a noted child advocate and juvenile criminologist.
