"If you have a child who is 'more'--more intense, more persistent, more sensitive--you probably already know who Mary Sheedy Kurcinka is. The newly revised fourth edition is just as reassuring and eye-opening as the first edition. But it's completely rewritten and updated, with more step-by-step advice, concrete examples, and practical tips. In this book she takes her commitment to positive parenting a step further, giving parents the hands-on tools they need to ease the challenges of life with a spirited child, without resorting to punishment. This book is wonderful." -- Laura Markham, Ph.D., author of Peaceful Parent, Happy Kids "Enter Dr. Mary's classroom, and you'll soon see that this isn't just a quick overview--it's a transformative series of lessons that will build your confidence and skills in connecting with your Spirited Child. Along the way, you'll also uncover insights about yourself that will make you a better parent, partner, colleague, and friend." -- Janet Crow MD, Professor of Pediatrics, University of California San Diego, "If you have a child who is 'more'--more intense, more persistent, more sensitive--you probably already know who Mary Sheedy Kurcinka is.
