75 simple strategies for raising fantastic kids




What Great Parents Do concisely presents key strategies to help parents reshape kids' challenging behaviours, create strong family bonds, and guide children from toddlers to teens.

What Great Parents Do is an everything-you-need-to-know roadmap for parenting that you will consult again and again.

This book will show you:

- How to avoid common parenting mis-steps.
- How to transform power struggles into cooperation.
