"This is the closest I've seen to the owner's manual all parents should be given at the birth of their first child." Karen Vavra, Educational Strategies and Partnerships, Cedar Rapids, IA


"First impressions are something so many make the error of going off of when evaluating others. "Never Assume: Getting to Know Children Before Labeling Them" is a book focusing on the demeanor of children and how to understand them. With educated writing from a behavior pediatrician, she discusses the temperament of children and how to deal with it to better understand the children for whatever one is trying to do. "Never Assume" is a solid child psychology manual, highly recommended." Midwest Book Review

FIRST WE MUST RESPECT THEM
The Roberts family arrived for their counseling session emanating anger and frustration before the first word was spoken. "I am sick and tired of Josh and Sara disobeying the rules," stated Mrs. Roberts. Mr. Roberts added, "They ignore us unless we get into their faces, lipping off when they do finally respond to us. We're their parents and deserve more respect."

Sound familiar? In physician and therapists’ offices across the country, this same scene takes place, often several times per day. Parents feel helpless to control their kids, to elicit respect from them. What's going wrong? Was it so different in past generations, as we frequently hear?
