In this practical, easy-to-implement guide, specialist child psychologist Dr Sarah Hughes gives you the tools you need for every age and stage of your child’s development.

Focusing on six key areas:

•  challenging behaviour

• emotions and tantrums

• confidence

• social skills and friendships

• anxiety, and

• parenting well through separation and divorce 

You'll learn all the do's and don'ts, and discover effective techniques for raising well adjusted children.

Dr Hughes uses real-world examples and scenarios to delve deep into the emotional and behavioural development of children, including rooting out just why kids can’t always behave well (hint: because their brains haven’t finished developing yet).

From how to reward positive behaviour to the best way to set rules and guidelines, Parenting Made Simple offers a warm and commonsense approach all parents can benefit from.
