Pretty much every parent has been reactive at some point. Reactive parenting encompasses the negative behaviors that stem from frustration, like yelling, threatening, screaming, and over-rewarding or bribing.

Does watching your child lose their temper feel like looking into a mirror? Your children look to you for everything; from lunch money and homework help, to impulse control and emotional regulation. You are the model by which they set their standards. So, when it comes to anger management, are you demonstrating model behavior? If the answer is "no", you’re not alone. Even parents need help learning how to control our emotional responses, especially when it comes to feeling frustrated with our offspring.

If it feels as if your child is at a point of no return and there’s nothing you can do to turn the situation around, don’t despair.

Every tool, strategy, or idea you need to guide your child in the right direction is in this handbook. Continue fighting for the future of your child, and they will thank you when they’re strong and independent adults living their best lives.
