Skills taught include: how to understand and accept your child; how to communicate effectively with your children; how to foster change by creating and enforcing standards, rules and limits; how to encourage responsible choice-making in your children. Section two ends with an epilogue devoted to providing skills and approaches to help parents manage the challenges of raising children with ADD, ADHD, Oppositional/Defiant Patterns and Excessive Rigidity.
