Synopsis:

If you’re like most parents, you worry about the future. You’re afraid that your disrespectful twelve-year-old will become a juvenile delinquent or that your defiant eight-year-old will become even more difficult to manage as a teenager. You may also worry about how to remain the most influential person in your child’s life, and sometimes about whether or not you have lost your influence altogether. You work hard at being a positive role model and being “good” in so many ways, but wonder if what you’re doing and saying is making a difference.

In How to Influence Your Kids For Good, Sara Dimerman shares her practical and effective step-by-step plan that will help you bring your family together, improve communication, and unlock the very best in your children and yourself.

“Sara Dimerman makes a convincing case that developing character in our children is one of a parent’s most important tasks. In How to Influence Your Kids for Good, she provides an innovative, step-by-step template for families who want to explore the values they cherish and deepen their commitment to living by those values.”–Today’s Parent
