Raising Loving Siblings
Guilford Press (Verlag)
9781462538881 (ISBN)
“Be nice to your sister!” “Stop picking on your brother!” “That's a time-out for both of you." When nothing works to stop the incessant battles, where can exhausted parents turn? Sibling expert and family therapist Jonathan Caspi knows that understanding why kids fight is the first essential step to restoring peace. Featuring clear principles, dos and don'ts, and loads of stories, this book shines a spotlight on family dynamics. Dr. Caspi guides you to make an effective plan for managing conflicts, so you can keep a cool head in the heat of the moment. Learn why it's never helpful to compare kids to each other, how to quell sibling struggles without taking sides, when to intervene (and when to step back), and what to do when parents aren't on the same page. Improving sibling relationships can have lifelong benefits for your family. This compassionate book shows how.
