Two practical guides for parents who have tried everything
Homework that turns into a battle, backchat that tests your patience, rules that get ignored, phones that never leave their hands, and arguments that seem to go on forever. As children enter their pre-teen years, even the most ordinary situations can become difficult to manage. Parents often find themselves repeating the same requests, raising their voices, threatening punishments or wondering: “What am I doing wrong?”
That’s exactly why Erickson created the Breakthrough guides series.
Practical, quick-to-read guides designed to help parents understand what’s happening, see things from a different perspective and try out new strategies in everyday life.
