Parents, educators, and the media wring their hands about the plight of America's children and teens - soaring rates of emotional problems, limited coping skills, disengagement from learning - and yet there are ways to reverse these disheartening trends. Teach Your Children Well acknowledges that every parent wants successful children. However, until we are clearer about our core values and the parenting choices that are most likely to lead to authentic, and not superficial, success, we will continue to raise exhausted, externally driven, impaired children.

A few years ago, Ned Johnson and Bill Stixrud started noticing the same problem from different angles: even high-performing kids were coming to them acutely stressed and lacking any real motivation. Many complained that they had no real control over their lives.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 47
ADHD can be a hefty pain to deal with, especially for a child. At this point, they aren’t aware that their outbursts are causing others harm or that their hyperactivity might be harming themselves. They are acting out of instinct because that is all they know. As their parent, it is your job to lift them up and show them the way. If they have low self-esteem, you need to push them up. If they lack focus, you need to guide them to find it. With effective strategies, you can implement in your daily lives, managing ADHD can be achievable.

Story3.5 out of 5 stars 30
As a parent or guardian of a teenaged boy, you understand the unique challenges that you have to overcome - your son’s lack of communication and poor listening skills, the mood swings, lack of discipline and, maybe, even some personal hygiene issues. But the same precious and loving son is still in that overgrown, clumsy body. You just must learn to understand that most of what you are dealing with is a normal part of going through puberty and maturing.

Must Read! Helping is with young and old kids
I'm very pleased with all the takeaways from this book. Obviously, I will have to put them into effect in order to know how well they work. But, we have already started using a behavior contract and a reward system and it really has changed the behavior of our kids, especially my 8-year-old. I'm happy to be nipping some of the teenage behaviors I see in her. I'm hoping this will help us avoid many of the teenage issues that I'm dealing with with my other children. with my older son, the reward system is working well. I don't think I have ever realized how little we treat our home environment like the real world. we often use consequences from The real world but not rewards. I love this train of thought. thanks for the help and I definitely recommend this to anybody with any age child who is having behavioral issues.
