- Synopsis
- &“I shouldn&’t have to tell him that again!&”&“She is just so spoiled.&”&“They don&’t appreciate anything I do for them.&”Do you feel like you&’re at the end of your rope? Are you exhausted by your kids arguing over every little thing? Finally there&’s a name for your feelings: &“Parent Frustration Syndrome&” (PFS). No kid is perfect, but parents often don&’t realize just how much their own thoughts, rather than their children&’s behavior, contribute to being emotionally overwhelmed and discouraged. In Liking the Child You Love, Renowned psychologist Dr. Jeffrey Bernstein offers proven strategies for taming the 9 most common toxic thought patterns that stop us from parenting effectively: • The &“Always or Never&” Trap • Label Gluing • Seething Sarcasm • Smoldering Suspicions • Detrimental Denial • Emotional Overheating • Blame Blasting • &“Should&” Slamming • Dooming Conclusions As you identify and put a stop to PFS&’s negative thought patterns, you&’ll be amazed at how your kids&’ defiant behavior quickly improves, without having to raise your voice or dole out harsh punishments. Soon you will have a closer, calmer, and more loving relationship with your kids—just by changing your own mindset.
