Book Description
Author, pediatrician, and developmental- behavioral expert Dan Shapiro, MD, divides his new parenting guide, Parent Child Journey, into ten different "miles." Each mile represents an interactive session that brings you closer to understanding your child's behavior and learning effective strategies. The first mile includes the "Gander," an assessment tool Shapiro developed to help describe your child's developmental profile-and yours too. Respecting the different learning styles of children and parents, he presents the Gander in a variety of ways: as a standard rating scale with explanatory text, but also as a picture, a song, and a map. Then, Shapiro takes parents through nine other sessions, continuing to present his evidence-based training program as a uniquely creative integration of standard discussion, real-life vignettes, richly illustrated fable, worksheets, and homework assignments. Throughout Parent Child Journey, Shapiro emphasizes, "Just because your child's behavior may be complicated, does not mean it is incomprehensible." Parent Child Journey combines serious help with whimsical presentation-supporting and teaching parents, even as it engages and entertains. With this comprehensive new guide, Shapiro reassures parents that they are not alone on this journey.

Book Description
Have you had the desire to improve the relationship you have with your children? Do you want to create more interactions in which your children are cooperative? Are you interested in creating beautiful memories of your parenting journey? Then this journal is for you. The parenting journal helps you to take the first steps to develop the relationship you desire. The Parenting Journal was designed to assist parents in developing a healthy loving relationship with their children. The activities were created from the findings of the author's research on parent-child relationships, which suggest that parents and children feel close to each other when there is an emphasis on interactions that they mutually enjoy. Moreover, parents experience more cooperation and less resistance from their children when they intentionally create experiences that both parent and children appreciate. WHY YOU'LL LOVE THE PARENTING JOURNAL: 1. Through the daily activities, you will be encouraged to intentionally focus on the positive aspects of your relationship with your child. The more you focus on the positives of the relationship, the more positivity you'll experience. 2. You'll gain a greater awareness of who you are as a parent and an adult. An increased self-awareness provides the opportunity for you to change yourself, your parent-child relationship, and your family dynamics. 3. The guided questions are ideal for the busy parent who does not have time to write a long unstructured journal entry every day.
