Synopsis

Learn how to open up the channels of communication with Stop Arguing & Start Negotiating: Strategies to Deal Effectively with Your Child by James F. McTamney, PhD.

Emphasizing that it is never too early (or too late) to teach the importance of strong negotiation skills, Dr. McTamney introduces parents to his three-step strategy that helps foster opportunities for growth, conversation, and improved relationships.

This approach, which combines cognitive behavioral therapy with a unique form of communication theory, strives to address the child as a whole in the process of behavioral change. By doing so, the child is encouraged to take an active role in developing the interaction skills that are needed to form a healthy and lifelong sense of freedom and accountability.

As a result of teaching children to think through the consequences of their behavior, they will be more motivated and equipped to solve problems on their own—meaning an increased sense of responsible independence. And as this sense of independence increases with age, so do your opportunities for turning possible confrontations into successful negotiations.

Dr. McTamney’s in-depth guide ultimately empowers readers, in a variety of challenging situations, to effectively verbalize their reasoning and emotions, resulting in interactions that help individuals learn and grow.
