What should we do with a picky child who creates stress at meal times and won’t show his math work, a sibling who picks on her younger brother, or a child who doesn’t exhibit good manners? How we do reset after we’ve created kids who feel entitled to get take-out, etc? What should we think about before giving an iPhone for Christmas? How can I not take my stress out on my kids? Kirk provides concise, concrete, hard-hitting answers to these tough questions.
