About this title

Synopsis

Presents techniques for parents on ways to respond to arguments with their children.

About the Author

Award-winning author Dolores Curran expanded a genre that included only advice about mothering when she began in the early 1970s, incorporating the entire scope of family life issues into her work. Her articles have appeared in over 100 magazines and journals, including McCalls, Redbook and Parents Magazine. In 1984, Curran received a Christopher Award in the Best Adult Book category for Traits of a Healthy Family, and in 1986 Penn State University honored her with a Celebrate the Family Award, given to recognize outstanding work on family issues.

From 1987-1991, Curran worked as a Family Resource Consultant for Ireland, giving lectures around the country. She currently serves on the advisory boards of Practical Parenting Education and Family Information Services.

Known for speaking "parent language," Currans sense of humor and practical advice has attracted many readers to her work. Parents literally asked to read excerpts from Tired of Arguing with Your Kids? off her computer screen as she wrote. "Parents are hungry for these skills," Curran says.

Curran has applied those skills herself, raising three grown children. She and her husband, James, currently live in Littleton, Colorado.

With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.
