People often ask me what books to read or where else to go for help, so I’ve collected my favorites here.
books
Hold on to Your Kids: Why Parents Need to Matter More than Peers, Gordon Neufeld and Gabor Mate
Positive Discipline, Jane Nelsen
The Explosive Child, Ross Greene
Parenting a Child Who Has Intense Emotions, Pat Harvey
Home Sweet Homes: A Journal and Planner for Co-Parents and Child, Fiona Kong
And, one off topic recommendation just for fun …
It’s All Too Much: An Easy Plan for Living A Richer Life with Less Stuff, Peter Walsh
If you struggle with clutter like I do, this book is a game changer. Unlike other “organizing” books, Peter Walsh acknowledges the emotional attachments we have to our things and how we can re-frame our thinking to let go of our stuff.
