One of your kids is easy-going. The other one's a challenge every single day. Are you doing something wrong? Is there something wrong with your child? Probably not. New research shows that children are different from the day they're born--and their temperaments stay different no matter how they're parented. But your children's behavior does reflect their inborn traits; once you understand those traits, you'll be better prepared to handle behavior. Written specifically to help with young children, Temperament Tools explains:
-What's normal for your child;
-How you can manage challenging behavior;
-How you can teach your child to cope with his behavior; and
-How all of you can avoid blame and guilt.
