"Alan Kazdin delivers the evidence-based, gold-standard method for
parents who want simple, effective responses to the everyday challenging
behaviors of their children." --Martin E. P. Seligman, author of
Flourish and The Optimistic Child
Alan Kazdin's The Kazdin Method for Parenting the Defiant Child is the
gold standard for research-backed advice on being a better parent for
difficult children. But what about children who are not "defiant"? Now,
in The Everyday Parenting Toolkit, Dr. Kazdin addresses how parents
can deal with the routine challenges that come with raising a child.
Dr. Kazdin's methods are based on the most up-to-date research and are
implemented in real-world ways. These are the problems that plague
parents on a day-to-day basis: from getting ready for school on time to
expanding the palates of picky eaters to limiting computer time, no
parenting book does a better job at helping parents understand and
correct problematic behaviors. Dr. Kazdin's methods foster lifelong
positive character traits such as respectfulness, honesty, kindness, and
altruism. With The Everyday Parenting Toolkit, Dr. Kazdin helps
transform parenting and helps develop ideal child-parent relationships.
