The author of When I Say No, I Feel Guilty (Dial, 1975) here aims to help parents teach children assertiveness techniques. Smith uses over 90 dialogues to illustrate how the verbal skills of fogging, negative inquiry, etc., can be used daily by even young children to avoid being manipulated into drug use, cheating, or premature sexual experimentation. He demonstrates the positive benefits of mastering these skills by citing the results of Irvine, California's STAR program in which children who learned assertiveness techniques actually had higher self-esteem and better grades than those not trained. Not just a rehash of Smith's earlier work, this book discusses defining behavioral standards, meting out discipline, and teaching responsibility. Recommended for public libraries.
